When
When they don’t understand they don’t want to listen. And when they do understand they try to look like they don’t understand stating that it is incomprehensible. Though, it was always like this in the town of Lidia Faint Crashewzski could never get over it. Everything she would say would be taken against her and if she was silent the silence itself would kill her. So, when her doctors told her mother as well as herself that she would be spending around two years in Melenvy’s Asylum the theory of ‘understanding’ blurred up at that moment for her. It wasn’t like she didn’t know why she was being sent there, she had a pretty good list of behaviors she had done to get herself there. Though, when they said that ‘You’re going there’ she understood that no one could interpret her and she would be spending the rest of her life there.
Her mother was crying all over her when they told her the news, but she signed the papers without hesitation.
Crashewzski could see that her own caretaker could not understand her as well; too much fear ruled her life.
She only had six hours before she moved there and obtained a room which she would be living in for the next ‘two years’. A white box with monitored cameras and no privacy lasting day after day. So, in those six hours she had (the final private six hours) Crashewzski decided to be awake staring at the alarm clock next to milk quartz lamp which rested on small black nightstand sitting next to her bed. It read 12:00 a.m on its blaring neon sign; she could here the clock screaming from within keeping her awake for the next hours or so of silence.
The room itself was cold and the sound of static etched out from the window. Gaunt tree branches rattled on the blue glass window from behind her and the wind whispered softly being overtaken by the sound of the static. The sound kept her awake and she decided to place her cold feet on the floor, her glossy indigo eyes studied the maple wooden floor. The lines that gave rectangular patterns that went up and down transformed into bars, bars that she soon would see upon her door... ones that will bind her down to the ground until she shut her eyes away from the pain. As soon as she left her mother would clean the room of her belongings and fill it up in the attic revealing only the emptiness that used be there the first time she looked at her room five summers ago.
They stated her as crazy and she could do very little to nothing. All her time has been indeed a waste because no one was there to care; no one was there to comfort her. The ones she did love have gone away to a better place. She stood and walked around the small room that wouldn’t be hers anymore but just a mere memory displayed in the past.
As she walked up to the mirror dresser next to her black closet, books and diaries stacked up high like skyscrapers ready to fall down to the floor and create a massacre. They themselves were entrapping memories and artworks she has done within her life time. Novels rested on the floor blocking the entrance to the closet which was empty. She stood in the middle of her room and looked up at the ceiling; it was blank only showing the light that was turned off.
Something from behind fell on the wooden floor and Crashewzski turned to look. The alarm clock apparently fell to the ground (it was too close to the edge in the beginning). Ignoring it she walked toward the door and opened it looking forward to the empty hallway. The sound of the static echoed out into the living room and Crashewzski decided to walk there, there was little to do in her room.
As she walked through the dark hallway the static grew louder, someone seemed to have the radio on. Voices were whispering in her ear and Crashewzski placed her hands to her ears, covering them... it seemed that someone was inside the living room. She slowly turned around the corner entering into the dim lighted living room. A lamp was on and a note sat next to it. Picking it up, Crashewzski sat down on the red couch and opened up the note, a puzzling look splattered on her face.
Dear Crashewzski
Please understand that due to the past incidents of the Effect occurring for the past twelve weeks, I am keeping my eye on you. You might not know me or my intentions of what I want to do with you but please understand that the boss’s down below are keeping their eyes open and you are best to be alert.
Do not at any circumstances feel that it is alright to trust anyone. That will only lead to suicide; you don’t want that do you?
Remember, I will catch you...
Sincerely
