A year ago Maddie was a victim of a teribal person. The guy was named William. He acted charming. It would of bean Maddie’s first date.

She didn’t mind that he couldn’t speek. He had this text to speech app on his phone. He was born with deformed vocal cords, or so he said. She still doesn’t know if that was the truth.

It was just after five. William picked her up in his car. Driving to the movie, he suddenly pulled down a dark empty side road.

Maddie longed to asked him if this was a short cut, but she knew he wouldn’t be abele to answer her with without being on the app.

She got this dangerous sensation when he stoped in the middle of the road.

She tried to open the car door, but it was locked. Before she could look at William he stabbed her in the neck.

Maddie grabbed her neck, blood poring out, she was never good with blood, but that was not the reason why she was fading out. The knife was laced with something.

She woke up in a hospital unable to speek. William had texted the cops, and when the cops arrived the he was gone.

He had left Maddie after cutting through her vocal cords. He injured her without killing her. He wanted her to live like he did. To slash someone’s vocal cord without killing them took skill. He did this before. Unfortunately he was never found.

A year has passed and Maddie’s life has changed. She had plans for becoming a singer, not eany more. She often wondered if that’s why William chose her.

She had never told him, but she posted videos about her singing all the time on her socials. She knew William must of syber stalked her.

In fear of him still stalking her, she stoped posting. She lived in constant fear. She lost meany of her friend because of that. And in class everyone saw her as the kid that can’t speek. No one saw her as Maddie anymore. Maybe William took her life after all.
