“No it’s not mamma said that she was only taking off an inch but instead she cut it up to my ears!” she pouted. He laughed and ruffled her hair.
“Don’t worry about it Evelyn its okay. It’s pretty.” But Evelyn stopped listening to him.
“Damien!” she suddenly cried, running towards a bundle of rags on a swing.
Caden ran after her, trying to call her back, until he saw the little boy. He was as tall as Caden, but way too skinny, his hair was stringy and smelled. He was dressed in a grey t-shirt that had stains, some he thought was blood. He had no shoes and his feet were burned.
“Damien what happened?!” Evelyn’s little voice came over his thoughts. The boy raised his head.
“Sir said I had to stay outside because his whore was coming over, he took away my shoes and he gave me a beating because I cooked his lunch wrong.” The raspy boy’s voice came out. He coughed and Caden looked down, sad.
‘his been threw so much…'

 

he thought as Evelyn tried to help him up.
“Here Evelyn I’ll do it.” Caden picked up the boy, and carried him to a bench, which resided by the slides. Evelyn’s hands fluttered all over him, looking for any cuts of sorts.
“I’m okay Evelyn. He just gave me a bloody nose. And some bruises, other then that its okay.” She gave him a small smile.
“Okay then Caden, Damien we are going to get ice cream!” Evelyn declared with a crisp ten dollars in her hand. “Daddy gave it to me and said be careful I spent iton something important, and this is important, because every time I’m sad Momma always takes me out for ice cream.” The boy smiled at Evelyn, and
hugged her.
“Here Damien…you can wear my shoes. I got socks on so the pavement won’t hurt my feet.” Caden slipped off his sneakers and gave them to Damien, he looked at Caden with wonder and a grin.
“Thanks Caden!” he hugged Caden, even though he smelled of cat pee and B.O. Caden hugged Damien back.
“Okay let’s go!” Evelyn giggled, taking both of the boy’s hands, leading them to Wendi’s ice cream parlor.

Caden smiled lightly.
“He still owes me a pair of sneakers…”
Damien hurried up the stairs, hoping that Evelyn was alright.
‘God what have I done?!’

he thought in horror as he opened up Evelyn’s
bathroom door.
Her skin was a pasty white, her whole frame shivering. Her eyes were closed, and her lips were blue. Everything about this picture was wrong, so very wrong.
Damien went to the closet and grabbed some towels laying them on the floor. Unraveling the belt and scarf from her hands, Damien picking up Evelyn gently, finding out how cold she really was.
‘Her skin is like ice…’

he thought laying her down on the towel, hastily covering up her body.
“Evelyn?” he asked her, when she didn’t answer he went to her wrist for a pulse. There was hardly anything.
Swallowing thickly, Damien picked her up once again, carrying her into her room. He laid her on the bed, and then went to her closet, grabbing a wool nightgown and some tights. He remembered everything Evelyn
had taught him about trying to keep the heat in.
‘Make sure that they have on tights or heavy socks, warm clothes and a hat of some sort. The most heat that escapes the body is at the feet and the head.’

Her
voice rang in his head. Covering her up with a bundle of blankets, Damien went to get her a hat.

Two weeks had pasted and Evelyn was still in a coma like state. Damien sat at her side every day, holding her hand, hoping she would wake. Her heart beat was steady and she was warm, but she still slept.
‘Maybe it was because she never wants to see me again…’

he thought sourly.
“Maybe you want to be alone…” he said out loud. “Evelyn please come back…please…” he bent over as if in prayer and began to weep.
Evelyn awoke to a bright shine in her face, the world seemed to spin, spinning and spinning, until she felt sick. A cool hand rubbed itself against her arm, as if to will her awake. She mumbled for someone to turn off the light, that she didn’t want to wake up again. She heard someone exclaim loudly. Then she really opened her eyes. Damien stood over her, tears of joy in his eyes.
“Oh god Evelyn I promise never to do that to you again!” he embracedher tightly, as everything came back to her.
She screamed.
Damien froze as her high pitched scream hit his ears. The screech lasted until finally he couldn’t take it and pulled away from her. She rolled off the bed, landing with a thump, she ran towards the door, but of course it wasn’t open.
“Evelyn love what’s wrong?” he asked quietly, his ears ringing with pain. She turned back to him, willing herself to stand.
“Evelyn love what’s wrong?!” she shouted in rage, mimicking him. “what the hell do you think you bastered! Leaving me in the tub with freezing cold fucking cold water?! Go fucking rot!” she threw the closest thing to her.
The sound of the shattering vase, made Damien cringe as he stood frozen in front of her. She was breathing hard, wobbling only slightly, her hair was in a frenzy, and her eyes were wild. She looked like a raging
goddess.
“Evelyn please calm down.” He held his hands up, palms out to her.
“Calm down?! You want me to fucking calm down?!” she clenched her teeth and let out a scream.
“I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you….” She chanted, sinking to the floor.
Damien caught her as she fell. She was sobbing uncontrollability, crying out for Caden, her father and her mother.
“Caden….” She whimpered, shaking in his arms. Her rage dying down, only to be toppled with unbearable sadness.
“Don’t touch me!” she screamed at Damien, he let go of her with only slight reluctances.
“I love you Evelyn.” He walked out the door, and shut it quietly. She heard him walk away without locking the door. She curled into a ball on the floor, crying, and sobbing. She fell asleep like this, her tears still running in her sleep.
Evelyn awoke to sunlight in her eyes, nothing made sense anymore, well at least to her. She laid there for a few moments, before
sitting up and stretching her aching back. She looked to a platter that had food and a cup of juice. Evelyn went over to the little table he had set up.
The food looked yummy, but she didn’t want to eat anything made by his hand. She dressed carefully, and stood at the door.
‘I wonder if he let it still unlocked…’

she touched the cold knob. Her fingers tracing the design.
Gripping it she turned the door, it opened.
“well my day has brightened.” She mumbled with a small smile on her face.
She walked around the third floor for a while, then descending to the second floor, she found a patio. She ran to it, and found it locked.
“Damn.” She sighed then went to the first floor.
‘yeah he’s gone for now!’

she rejoiced in her mine, she hummed a tune as
she heard banging from somewhere.
“Hello?” she called loudly. The banging went on, only louder and more fierce.
She listened, walking around, putting her ear to every door, until she found the basement door. She put her ear to it, as she heard yelling. Her heart picked up.
She knocked on the door.
“Hello?!” the bang went on. She looked around for a moment, wondering if she would do this.
‘Caden might be down there…’

the little voice in her head whispered to her.
Her ears started to ring.
“Caden…” she whispered to herself, the name burning in her throat. She ran into the kitchen, the dishes were clean and the window was open. She could smell the faint scent of bleach. She went through all of the drawers,
and then finally found what she was looking for.
A bobby pin.
She raced back to the door, jabbing the pin into the lock, it took her a few minutes before she could open it. Then finally the door swung open.
Only one thought came to her mind.
“Caden!”

Chapter 10
Sanity

Evelyn heard the clanking noise, followed by a muffled yell.
“Caden?!” she cried out again, taking the stairs by two. Running downward until she saw the water.
“Caden?” she whispered now, not knowing if Damien was down there with him.
She heard a muffled scream and stepped into the water.
The water was like ice around her ankles, threatening to freeze them. She walked further down until the water hit her hips.
‘its so deep.’

She thought, shivering. She put her hands out in front of her, so she could feel where she was going.
Everything was dark and cold, the water’s ice-like grip began to make her feel chilled. She shivered again.
The walls felt like slime or algae had taken over them, or maybe even mold. She wrinkled her nose and kept a steady hand on the wall, her other hand looking for something to hold onto as well. When a cord hit her in the face, she couldn’t help but smile.
Tugging at it, she was able to find the light, but what illuminated the room was what scarred her.
The light bulb was bloody, dried blood made the room tint to a strange color, the clanking sound was behind her, her muscles tensed as she turned around, her heart’s beating in her ears, and nothing made sense to what she saw.
Caden was chained to a wall, his back against the cement, his arms above his head, his shirt was gone, his slacks that he wore to the funeral, were soaked and growing something green. Her eyes widened as she starred at him longer, noticing everything.
Old scars and opened wounds cover his body; his face only had a few cuts and bruises. He had been gagged and his eyes were open.
Caden starred at Evelyn as she did the same. Her hair was a little longer. And she had grown a few inches, but she would never tower over him, like he did to her.
Tears suddenly ran down her cheeks as she flung herself at him. Wrapping her arms around him, as he wished he could do to her.
“Caden!” she sobbed, her whole frame shaking against him.
“I missed you, I missed you, I missed you!” she cried. Everything she said was blurring together, all that he cared about was that she was safe, and well. She reached up and untied the gag from his mouth, flinging it to the floor.
“Evelyn…” he whispered, was he dreaming, or was this real? He couldn’t tell, not right now with her in front of him.
“What did he do to you Caden? My god, this is my entire fault.” Her hands went to her lips as she started to cry again.
“Evelyn it isn’t your fault. Your fine, I just wasn’t strong enough remember?” she shook her head.
“No. if I hadn’t had befriended him, we wouldn’t even be here!” she sobbed.
‘Everything is wrong and nothing is right!’

Caden thought grimly.
“Evelyn. It’s okay love, it’s not either of our faults, its Damien’s okay? I missed you and I love you.” She nodded her head to this and wrapped her arms around him, giving him a chaste kiss on the lips. He smiled at her, as a shadow came down the stairs. He looked frozen as he starred at the thing in front
