ANA

I’m sitting on the floor, with my back to the wall where three other women are standing.

The one with the blank stare whispered something in a language I’ve never heard, but it sounded like a final prayer with her head looking upward.

God. It’s me. Ana again, Your least favorite child, seeing as you keep letting all the bad things happen to me over and over again.

If you’re listening, I’d really appreciate a break right about now.

I lift a hand and brush my fingers lightly over the bruises that feel swollen on my face.

And the massive bump on my head that feels like it’s the size of an egg.

When I regained my consciousness, the man with the gun was gone, and so was the body.

There’s blood on the floor, and I kept staring at it.

The door opens, and two armed men come in.

They gesture with huge machine guns for us to come.

Where are we going?

What's happening?

    ANAI'm so tired and exhausted.It’s late afternoon and I’ve been walking for hours. I can’t physically run anymore. I can’t hear car or a highway sounds to followIt will be dark in about two hours judging by the sun and I am staying on the edge of the forest that follows the road as I don’t want to get lost. I turn and look back the way I have come. God please, am I even going the right way? I do seem to have come a far distance but what happens if the closest house is like eighty miles from anywhere. Fuck!Just keep going, or the mind will hold you back. Stop thinking I remind myself. I won’t be able to see when night falls so I will have to find somewhere safe to sleep. Where is it safe to sleep here in the woods in the midst of shrubs and animals?My eyes search the forest. Now in most woods, most of the scariest things don’t come out at night, all the nocturnal animals are relatively harmless, but in this part of the woods i am i habe no fucking idea. My face drops.

    ANAI stand in the bathroom with the glass in my hand as I wrap a sock around the base of it so I don’t cut myself. I’ve thrown up three times this morning already with nerves and my leg is bouncing uncontrollably.Breakfast will be here in fifteen minutes and I’m going to do it. I don’t know what I’m going to do… but I’m going to do something violent and someone is probably going to die hopefully not me. They have pushed me to the point of no return. “I’m sorry but you have forced me to hurt you,” I whisper to my reflection in the mirror to try and justify what I am about to do. “ I'm sorry but it has to be the young doctor” As I stare at my reflection. I’m going for him. I don’t care if I kill him but I know I couldn’t live with myself if I hurt the boy. He’s just a kid trying to get himself through med school. But the downside of my plan is that Boris is bigger and more dangerous and way more fucking scary. Oh my god, oh my god. I put the glass knife on the basin and pu

    ROMAN What Sasha? What can we do? Carry on like none of this happened. Return to how it was,” I sneer at him. His tear-filled eyes hold mine. “Ana is dead and alone because of me. I failed to protect her when she needed me the most,” I reply in a whisper at my incompetence as her husband He shakes his head. “No, Ana is with her mother and she is watching what you do. She is still with you and I need you, Roman. We all need you,” he pushes out in a rush and in fear. I put my hand up against the glass to rest on his and smile sadly. I need to get out of here before I lose my shit. “Just pick the stuff up for me today, please.” I stand abruptly at turn to leave the room. “Sit back down. I want to talk to you some more,” he pleads. I shake my head. “I’ve got to go,” I whisper through my hurt. “Got to go where Roman Petrov?

    Chapter 206RomanI lie in the bed in the cell as I think of my beautiful Ana. Even the memory of her lifts me from my darkened place. Her soft hair, her beautiful smile and dimples, the way she loved me and how much she we have been through together.It’s not fair that she be forgotten in all of this.

It’s not meant to be like this,this was never how it was meant to end.“Hey, are you awake man?” I hear the young kid across the hall call out.“No,” I reply flatly.“Are you going to get out of bed today?” he asks.“No,” I reply. Why bother?“Come on. Why don’t you come to the gym?”My eyes flick to him. “You saw what happened last time I went to the gym,” I reply. I got into a fight with three other men over nothing. I don’t even know how it started.“Com
