Dear Diary,

Seems Lexie slept peacefully.

She even woke up at the right time.

And she did well.

When I told her to drink the lovely cold drink from the floor, she obeyed.

It's not a fetish or a kink.

I'm just doing my job here.

I also told her that she is going through all of this because Melissa is doing well.

It's a competition between them.

If one does better, the other suffers.

Crazy, right?

I didn't really think about it beforehand.

It just came to me.

Like a stroke.

I showed Lexie a little bit of her reward and hugged her.

Awww.

You know that moment when you set a dog free and it can't wait to run away?

I finally experienced that.

I set her free.

As we speak, lovely Lexie is somewhere in the woods.

Her choker is turned off.



She's independent now.

Very independent.

I did inject her with something beforehand, though.

Something that would make her believe she's truly fucked up from the snake's poison.

I want to see what she does when she thinks she has nobody to rely on.

I'll go look for her later.

I hope she doesn't die.

As for Melissa...

Well, she's technically the cause of some of Lexie's pain.

Haha.

See, whenever I have the time, I go to Melissa and play a game of cards with her.

If she wins, Lexie doesn't suffer.

Well...

She only suffers when she doesn't obey.

But if Melissa loses, she has to pick from five cards.

Each card means a different kind of suffering for Lexie.

She lost today.

That's why we now have Lexie running naked through the woods on such a cold night.

Poor Lexie. Poor Melissa.

Poor me.

I'm the one who has to go find her.

Melissa is writing her essay again today.

Hers is different, though.

She only has to write bad things about herself.

I'm ugly.

I'm useless.

I hurt my friends.

I'm evil.

I cause pain to others.

I'm sure you realize those things aren't necessarily true.

But if you look at what she's been doing lately...

You might say they are.

After all, she has been making choices that hurt Lexie.

I didn't make those choices for her.

I just gave her the cards.

That's different.

Oh well.

I'm enjoying myself.

I'm going to buy pizza before I go looking for Lexie.

If she's okay, I might give her a few slices.

But we don't know yet.

So...

It's a nope.

Right, Dearyyyyy?

Goodnight, you diaryyyy.
