24 Chapter 24: Tired of living

The day was losing its light and night was on its way. My feet hurt running for such a long time not knowing where to go. People along the road passed me and looked at me scornfully as if I were mad.

"Don't walk near her Hun," I would hear them say pulling their child close to them.

Not being able to bear it anymore, I ran across the road into the forest away from everyone. I had soon lost energy and sat next to a tree, resting my back on the large tree trunk. Tears streak down my cheek, sad and tired of bad things happening to me. I thought leaving Phyllis's cell I would find peace at last, but it only got worse every day. I cursed the day I was ever born into this world. I did not understand why I was conceived into this world to suffer. I would never be happy, I thought.
