Coming Undone

Kallie's hand shook as she stared at the letter. The words staring up at her, laughing and taunting her.

Really, after all these years did they really think... they were adults for Merlin's sake, they should be able to, they shouldn't need her too. She had thought they had been past all this. When she left she told them that she was done. They had to fend for themselves... and yet here they were... beggging her again.

Couldn't the fix their own god damn lives for once!

She threw the paper down on her desk and spun in her chair. Even as she did it she could feel her chest constricting and her breath coming in shorter gasps. Her hand found her chest as she attempt to graps pull away whatever was causing the problem, however nothing was there. No one was choking her but herself, and her lack of control.

The panic was closing in on her, she was losing control, but there was nothing she could do. She didn't want to leave the room. What if someone saw, or-or-or...

Hands trembling, chest feeling like there was a rock pushing down on it, she stumbled over to her window fumbling to open it. Maybe if she could get some air then she could-she could...

This is what her parents did to her.

They made her lose control.
