THALIA
3 boys. Falling for 1 girl. Which is me. I didn't think it was possible. Until now.
"Thalia, come out. Come out. Wherever you are."
I hear someone calling me out in this forest where I ran in.
These boys. These boys are out to hunt me. Whether they want to kill me, take me, or make me submit. I don't know. They scare me in this game of cat and mouse. They are the predators, while I am the prey. So I do the best I can.
Run. Run. Run as fast as I can. For my life. For my sanity.
"Oh, Darling Thalia. Where are you?" I hear another voice calling me from my side.
I feel shivers run down my spine, but I keep running.
"Thalia... You little mouse. Come out, come out to play." I hear another voice closing in on me.
No. No. No. They keep beckoning me, but I refuse to fall. They are just... monsters in human skin. So I keep running.
"AAAAAH!" I scream, and then I finally found myself in bed.
Was all that just a dream? A premonition of something that will come?
I grip my sheets tighter. But there's no backing out now. I have to face them and my inner demons sooner or later. I can't show any signs of weakness to other people. I came here to get a move on. So get a grip, Thalia. You're strong.
