S K Y E W I L S O N My heart thunders in my chest . I hadn't realized the situation had been this bad . I had thought that Drew would eventually let me go . I had thought that after he realized my powers can't expand into more , he'd let me go . That was the lingering hope that roamed around in my brain for over eight months -- he had to let me go at some point . After he realized that I'm not a threat anymore . I tilt my head backward , leaning against the cold , slimy wall . "I will not cry , I will not feel ," I whisper , my voice cracking as I utter the words , bile riding in my throat . "I will not react ." I breathe out , tapping my finger against my knee slowly , focusing on the feel of it instead of concentrating on the fact that my life end tomorrow, and I've barely even lived
