Behind the glass
1. Chapter
Maggie - 23. May 2019
I had a perfect childhood. In some cases, I thought my parents spoiled me too much. Now everything is different. I am currently in a room with one glass wall, one table and a bed. I don't even know exactly where I am, in which country or in which city. I have no idea what is going on in the world. I don't know if my family is alive and well. I know nothing. I only have a journal and a pencil. I'm going to go crazy and I don't even know if it's from boredom or from the information that I'm missing. And every day I see less and less hope that I will be able to get out of here. But let's start from the beginning. I used to have a perfect life. I had a great job. I worked as a psychiatrist. Everything went like clockwork. I found a friend. We liked each other very much. Finally, the day came when he asked me to marry him and after half a year we got married. I have been married for 4 years now. One day I went home from work and then I didn't see anything. I remember walking home from work and the last thing I saw was a car pulling up in front of the house and then it was dark. I woke up here in this gray painted room. All I can see through the big glass wall is that I'm in some kind of forest. Sometimes I see a fox, a squirrel or a wolf. I also tried to break the window, I tried everything, but nothing helped. I get food once every 3 days. I was unconscious for the first 3 days in this cage, and on the fourth day I realized that someone had kidnapped me. I have no idea why, but I was already desperate. I've lost at least 13 kilos since I came here. I don't know what day it is today, or what time it is, but I can safely say that I've been here for a quarter of a year, if not more, and I'm on the verge of a mental and nervous breakdown.
