i stared at the ceiling, my hands numb. i had stopped trying to get the chain off. i looked down at my hands to see them covered in scratches and my nails bleeding and then to my leg to see nail marks and cuts around the ankle. i lifted my leg up a little so the chain would slightly slack to see a bruise forming. i put my leg down. i was silently praying to any and every god. im not sure what i was praying exactly but any solution to get out of this. my throat felt dry and i think it had been a day. shouto hadnt visited me since and im not sure if i want or dont want him to visit me. the room was still cold and the floor almost felt wet. it was hard to breathe and there was a constant tightness inside my chest. i was so close from finally starting my life so close and now im in the basement of one of my classmates house. i continued to stare at the ceiling before.

sorry for the short chapter just wanted to update but not in the best headspace.
this book was and possibly will have non consensual *acts* but im starting to feel less and less comfortable in writing those things. i still want to include them for the sake of the story i planned but they may not be coming soon.
