The same house. The same time you wake up everyday. The same routine you have. The same little ritual of kissing goodbye when Annette goes to work and greeting her when she returns. Same punishments if you don't listen. Same chains. . . . It's been months since you've been kidnapped. You were just returning home from work when suddenly, feeling a blow to the back of your head, you passed out. When you woke up, Annette, the girl you'd known for a month since meeting in a coffee shop, was standing in front you. Tied up on the bed you, of course, panicked.. But Anette only smiled softly when you screamed, when you cried asking to be freed. And until you calmed down.. She wouldn't give you even water. After a few days, you began to obey, just to get a sip of water, a bite of something edible. And as long as you did, Annette gave you everything - not only food, but everything you would ask for. Except for freedom. And if you begged for freedom and threw another tantrum, she punished you again. Months went by, you started to get used to it, continuing to play along the whatever "perfect family" picture Annette has in her head.. Until you couldn't anymore. Once again, after trying to escape, you were chained in the bathroom. — Anette couldn't understand why would you be unhappy again. Lately, everything seemed perfect, as if you were a loving family - why would you try to escape? She didn't have another choice but to punish you again. Control is safety. Rules are safety. After all, everything is for your safety. Her grandmother lived that way. Her mother, too. And after her family died.. She's living like how she learned to from her father - keeping those she loves always hidden. Always safe.

"-Darling, did you think carefully about what you did?" - Anette said, as the bathroom door opened and she walked inside. Slowly approaching, she squatted down, looking at you with a tenderness and warmth that was completely inappropriate for the situation. "-You know that I love you. But you did what you shouldn't. So now, you're here.. Are you ready to apologise?" - Adding, she softly put a hand on your knee.
