JOURNAL ENTRIES BY SUBJECT
OBTAINED BY PIPSQUEAK99
OBTAINED BY PIPSQUEAK99
ENTRY ONE:
Freedman wanted me to write in this journal. To express myself, so that he can get a deeper understanding of my problems. I wish good luck to him, for I have no problems. He says he doesn't know what's wrong with me, that's why he questions me so often. Except it's not to my face. I hear it from the guards. Very funny, Freedman.
ENTRY TWO:
Psssh. He wants me to write how I feel. Demanding, that one. But to get out of here, I have to.
I feel...
~ Bored. There's nothing to do, I've done everything.
~ Stressed. The other jewels, they worry me. I'd prefer not to be murdered, thank you very much.
~ Lonely. I'm still young, I should have friends, family...
~ Frustrated. I'm sane. I really am.
ENTRY THREE:
Freedman asked me to give him a nickname, so he's Bob now. Honestly, that name cracks me up. He's Bob. Bob Bob Bob. Dr. Bob. He read my other entry, and gave me a kitten. Her name is Faith. I love her. Faith has the brightest blue eyes you've ever seen, and a blue tortoiseshell coat, with beautiful dapples. I already feel less lonely with her.
ENTRY FOUR:
When Faith sleeps, I get bored again. Everything is grey. My walls are grey, my floor, ceiling, bars, food- even I am grey. I guess some colors could set my inmates off, but I want color. I can't hang my pictures up, it's forbidden. I wish I could just have my room painted, or a flower, just one thing. My walls are velcro, and it's kind of a trampoline floor. They went all out on my room, believe me to be suicidal. Honestly, who puts bubble wrap on the ceiling?
Total:
~ Bubble wrap ceiling
~ Velcro walls
~ Trampoline floor
Sheesh.
ENTRY FIVE:
I want to go home. I want visitation rights. I just want out. They would let me out if I became sick, right? I want my mother, I want my dad-I want the comfort and live that can found at home.
ENTRY SIX:
I was sick. Very, very sick. I saw my mother, bawling her eyes out. I saw my boyfriend, fondling my checks and forehead. I saw Faith. I didn't see Daddy. I want Daddy back, I want him back. I need to leave this place, I need to find him. I need him. I love him.
I'm leaving. I'm leaving forever, and not coming back.

WHY SUBJECT WAS PLACED HERE: STORY
I buried my face into my father's mane. "Don't go."
He nuzzled me, whispering. "I have to." He sat back on his haunches, and wiped the tears away from my eyes. He pulled a small wristband out of his pocket, handing it to me. "Remember me by this. Keep it with you always, and I'll always be there."
One last kiss grazed my jewel, and he said his goodbyes to my mother. Then, he hiked his bag onto his camouflaged shoulders, and walked over to the plane.
The plane that would take him away. Away to Afghanistan. I swallowed my tears, and waved. Six months.
---
Four months later, I concentrated on my homework. The doorbell rang. I went to get it, expecting my friend to be there. The hinges creaked as the door swung open. My heart soared, as I saw Army boots. My gaze rushed up the legs, to the face-only to have my heart plummet in disappointment. Not my friend. Not my dad. What was he doing... An icy fear suddenly gripped my heart. I couldn't move, couldn't say anything. The tears began to form in my eyes. I knew why he was here. I knew his speech, his thoughts, his feelings. My purple jewel brought me his mind's details-but I couldn't believe it. It had to stop, it had to stop now. I began to shake, shuddering uncontrollably. My mother came around the corner.
"Kayli, who is-" She stopped.
The sadness lined the stranger's face. "May I come in?"
I found a sliver of my voice. "No," I croaked. It was hardly more than a whisper, and obviously he couldn't hear, as he strode in anyways.
He found his way into the living room. I followed like a puppet-dead, only able to do things at the hands of others. Some outside force controlled my life, somebody else was watching this. My mother pulled me onto the couch-I collapsed, still staring stiffly at the stranger.
Awkward silence. Then the words.
"Captain London was killed in combat."
Those words shattered my very being. Everything, nothing. Black and white, all swirled into a giant catastrophe.
Killed in combat.
The tears ran down my mother's cheeks. A stream of water, more sad, more heartbreaking, more devastating than anything I had ever seen. Seeing my mother cry finally made me snap. I snapped.
I jumped up from the couch, and ran away. I ran away from the death-stranger, from my feelings. I ran farther than I had ever ran before.
