Four walls are all I have ever known even though I'm free it always feels like I am trapped and afraid. I am always wondering if someone is lurking behind that tree or that house or driving in that car so that they can kidnap me and rip me from these four walls and put me into a new one that holds a worse fate then the last.

Lavender was just four years old when she was kidnapped and sold, but she's free now and she can do whatever she wants but she can't really because she still feels confined in four walls no matter where she goes.

Finally Free

We start making breakfast while the men plan on moving the main area of the tribe higher as well as all the housing. 


Soon, we eat our food then I am put to work in the nursery. 


I watch the little ones sleeping soundly and mothers come in to feed them and then leave. Toddlers, also, move about in a closed-off area. 


I play around with some of them and rock some to sleep even feeding orphans. 


"Anthurium," a man says which causes me to jump up. "You scared me," I say as I hold my heart, "am I changing shifts?" He shakes his head, "Ra'ees wants to see you immediately." I sigh nervously and nod, "On my way." 


I ring the bell and another woman comes to the nursery then I make my way to his home.
