I back up quickly and pull the covers around me and cringe. I do not know this woman and I am really afraid. I am totally confused about what is going on and where I am. I have no memory of anything beyond taking a drink. I start to cry. I see the expression on the maid’s face. It is very obvious she is not expecting me to act this way and is more than surprised at my reactions.
I hear someone approaching and see the maid look up. I hear a voice. It is such a comforting voice. So soft and hypnotic. My Mistress is calling me softly.
She says, “Missy baby, what’s wrong?” I feel her sit beside me. Her arms are lovingly around me. I am so relieved because I know in my heart Mistress will protect me. I turn … my mouth falls open and my eyes get big.
Mistress is …Vickie!
I feel a really horribly sharp pain in my head now as memories come back completely and disappear all at the same time in a huge wave of realization and forgetfulness. It hurts really bad. I feel things going fuzzy as the pain intensifies. I scream pitifully as I go limp and fall over on my back out of Vickie’s arms. I am loosing consciousness as wave after wave of memory returns and disappears in agonizing pain. I feel Vickie pick me up gently and cradling me. I hear voices screaming about tool kits and collar adjustments as I quickly fade away to darkness.
