Darkness is my old friend

Staying in empty cold dark cells was not a concern for her even in the slightest, but having her heart broken twice from her foolishness was the worst thing that could happen.

She has counted the time she is here; it has been precisely seven days and six nights. The guards were all respectful; they were not a hooligan that mistreated her. Her meals are three times a day, and she can freshen herself up, so she is not covered in miles or rotting away.

Rubbing her calluses palm on the raggedy walls, she knew this was not a dream, but a nightmare, a misery, and she once again wasted an excellent second chance.

This reminds her of the eerie voice when she fell into the abyss before waking up in this world.

"BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU WISH FOR. "

Why wasn't she just reincarnated as a maid?

Why does it have to be still complicated in this world?

Tears poured like an avalanche down, streaming down her cheek. She has lost again, lost her freedom, lost her son, and lost Daniel after she opened her heart. Is the world cruel, or was she stupid?

A creek and thumping sound was heard, and the outside light blinded her, which had spent days underground. In a fetal position, she turned her face to shield her eyes from the bright fluorescent lights.

"Get up!!" a voice commanded her.

She has been skipping meals from time to time, protest? No? Is it destructive? Perhaps.

Her legs wobbled when she tried to stand; the voice commanded her to grab her by the arm and yank her up to place the chain on her wrists. As if she is the beast that requires to be tamed. Nonetheless, she manifests this situation; she is the one welcoming this sort of life to herself. It was not Lorenzo; it was not Daniel but her! She has no one to blame but herself.

She chuckled to herself; if she were to die again? What are the odds of her reincarnating again? How many chances does someone have for them to keep screwing up their life?

What about 0? This evil monologue keeps playing in her head.

KILL!! KILL!! KILL!!KILL!

Like a bee buzzing in her ears, sending her to euphoria, she felt intoxicated with the evil thoughts towards herself.

KIILLLL YOUUUUU! KILL YOUUUU!!

The shrieking sound of whispers keeps getting stronger, flooding her mind and sending her to the abyss.

Her mind snapped when she was shoved into another bright light white room padded with soft material she could not help but lean on.

YES, I AM CRAZY!!

She can't give up! She needs to fight! Fight, little fighter!

Nothing was present in the room, not a table or a chair, nothing..empty and white like a child that was just born into the world, pure and holy.

YESSSSS! YOU ARE NOT PURE!! YOU DON'T DESERVE TO LIVE ANYMORE! YOU HAVE SO MUCH BLOOD ON YOUR HAND!

COME CHILD, COME BACK TO ME! LET'S START OVER, SHALL WE?

The voice, who is that?

The door was open, revealing Daniel accompanied by several other men; she saw none of them had a weapon. Can she fight them and able to leave? She didn't know the layout of the facility. How far is it from civilization?

A pen and a paper were thrown at her by Daniel.

His heart was wrenching watching her look malnourished; her hair was a mess, her eyes were sunken, and her skin was white like a ghost. This is the woman he loves. The first woman he ever loved. He couldn't believe how stupid he was to almost believe in magical stories she created to keep pretending to be with him.

Does she even feel the same way as he did?

"Signed it"

Helena looked at the paper and the pen in front of her and started laughing.

The evil thoughts won't leave her alone; how bad can someone's mental health be destroyed before they do the unthinkable?

" I fell in love with you and I am least expecting it. I am sorry, even in the two lifetimes, we are not meant to be together...perhaps the third time is a charm?"

Her words go deep into Daniel's mind..before he realizes it, Helena takes the pen and stabs it into her neck in the same spot where Francesca had stabbed her.
