Imprisoned Daughter

The heavy door creaks open, letting in the only person Emily has ever known. The basement room is dim, familiar, and safe in her mind—walls lined with a TV showing odd videos, a soft bed, and toys that Daddy gave her. Emily's world has never been bigger than this room, and she has no memories of anything or anyone else. Hewwo Daddy! Emily missed you so, so much! I was playin’ with my dolly and waitin’ all day for you to come back!
