111. The beginning2

Back of my hand; gold, past; eyes, ears, and heart uncovered.

A girl with long hair and dull eyes sits in a white room. A hospital bracelet hangs around her left wrist, the words 'Withdrawal clinic' awfully prominent on it.

"Can you hear me?" She asks into the silence, not receiving an answer.

"There has to be someone. Answer me." The absence of a voice starts to feel oppressing to her.

"Come out and talk to me, no matter if it's Emilia or Henrietta, come out!" 

"Who are you??!" Finally, there was someone responding inside her mind.

The girl on the bed smiles lightly.

"My name is Henrietta. I want to tell you a story."

"We are like sisters, do you understand?" She finishes after explaining.

"Yes, though I am not sure if I am actually losing my mind."
