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

As I look out at the vast expanse of the snowy mountain, fear builds inside me, and I make my way to the edge of the mountain. When I see how high up I am, I move backwards and fall on my butt. I felt so afraid of being alone again that I got overwhelmed and my fear came rushing back. I realised that no matter how badly I want to be who I was, there is something inside that will never disappear. 


I get up slowly as an ache spreads through me and some people start making their way onto the top of the mountain alongside me. 


Lantana comes towards me with worry on his face, but Magnolia ushers him away as she takes over.
