That night I couldn’t sleep
Mi
I had never really slept well since I was a little girl. At night the monsters came out to play whether they were inside my head or the shadows of my step father but in the past month at apple gate house things had changed and for the first time in a long time the nightmares stayed somewhere out of sight and my stepfathers shadow was far away allowing me to find how healing sleep was. However that night I didn’t sleep.

 The next day I would be embracing my future. At ten am I would be strapped into the back of either Esmee or Emmet’s car and they would be taking me to see my future. They said I belonged there and Esmee told me stories of all we would achieve together but I know she had the romantic image in her head. It was going to be a lovely house and my new room sounded something from a fairy tale but I was not a bear, I wasn’t even close. I was Mi and I was more likely to tear them apart then fill in any missing spaces. I was going to ruin their lives because she was expecting Disney princess and I was nothing more than one of the ugly sisters. I wanted to believe in her fairy tale. That I could get out of the unit and live happily with my sister and her husband but I wasn’t stupid, It couldn’t happen to me.

That night I couldn’t sleep. I was about to destroy someone life.
