"Hah…hah…" Ari tried to calm down as she watched her trembling hands. Sweat was covering her entire face and her instincts were telling her to run away, she wanted to turn on her feet and then walk away but.
'You can't. If you run away, then what will happen to you?'
'Are you going to disappoint your parents even more? You are already a disappointment, Ariana. How much more will you disappoint?'
'You should be grateful that they are even willing to accept a monster like you as their family.'
'You know what you are.'
'You know what is locked inside the room, right?'
'A demon. That's what you are.'
'Don't you remember what you did?'
Ari gulped hard. The surrounding silence was stretching wide, she could even hear the cicadas chirping.
