"We're always fighting," came the flat reply. They'd never gotten along, yet her mother somehow got the opposite impression. And Anise was supposed to be the delusional one here?
More importantly, her parents reacted to the scene just as Anise had expected. She even felt her heart leap with hope at her mother's words. She didn't belong here. They really understood!
"I've been okay, but..." Anise moved closer to her mother, wrapping her arms around her waist. Maybe it was dishonest to make her fellow patients look like the cause of her misery, but it was all she had to work with right now. This was her only chance to try and get help from the outside. And with the way the nurses were moving about the room, it sounded like she wasn't going to have much more time to make her case. Her face half-buried in her mother's bosom, she pleaded, "I want to go home. And... if I can't go home, then I want to go anywhere but here."
