Entry 2: "Afraid..."



I was so afraid earlier today... The man who kidnapped me, he was in the Pony when my guard and I went.  For some reason, I let out a shriek of terror.  Why did I let out a shriek of terror?  Why did I hide?  Is the coward in me that has always been there finally coming out?
I am afraid I will only grow worst.  I have to stop before I become one of the helpless ladies depending on the support of others.  My damn leg doesn't help though, it's hard to walk.  And my mind, I can't focus it easily.  My head hurts so much, and my vision feels as if the world is blurry and dark.  Like a shadow.  I  feel dizzy when I stand, and I have to stand on one foot.  Is something wrong with me?  Why does my mind seem so confused since I came home?

Ana is getting married by the way.  So is my other friend, I'll just call her Pretty.  I don't like having female friends, I never had them before.  Pretty wants to teach me to cook and clean and keep a house.  Ana talks to me about her pregnancy problems... It's so confusing to me.  Like I told Pretty , I doubt I shall find a man anytime soon.  I am not a woman to be loved, I know that.  I push people away too much.  It is not only that I do not want love, but I do not want a man to think it is his job alone to protect me and please me.  

I don't want someone to cling to me nor do I wish for someone else to cling to...  I cannot stand on depending upon others.  And yet there is a man I do love. But anyway I cannot stand being afraid.  That is very much unlike me.  I do not care if I die, I already know that.  When death comes, I shall fight it with all my might, but I will not fear or cry.  I will die.  Simple as that.
