Word Count: 217
Sometimes when she’s in the shower, her fingers will glide over the handful of scars that server as the only reminder of her time in the Dollhouse. She had willingly signed away five years of her life, five years that are blank and lost to her now. And as her fingers ghost over the ridged tissue of the scars that mark her body, she will wonder how did this happen? Her mind remains curiously and infuriatingly blank to her despite her prediction that one could never wipe a slate completely clean.
She had reluctantly signed up for the Dollhouse and had thrown away five years of her life not knowing what she was really getting into. All she had were vague ideas and doubts, she was pretty sure that there was more to it than what Adelle wanted her to believe. Yet she has no one to blame for it but herself, she decided to run away and rob herself of five years by signing that document.
In her mind, Adelle has become the devil and she, herself, has become some sort of Faustian character. And she wonders when her life outside of the Dollhouse will come crashing down on her because she’ll be forced to pay the price for the sin of signing her soul away.
