Fear of being caught from "summary" of Autobiografía de un esclavo by Juan Francisco Manzano
The fear of being caught was a constant presence in my life as a slave. It lurked in the shadows, always ready to pounce when least expected. It was a heavy burden that weighed on my mind and soul, never allowing me a moment of peace.
Every move I made, every word I spoke, was tinged with this fear. I had to be careful at all times, watching my back and keeping my guard up. The consequences of being caught were too dire to even contemplate.
The fear of being caught shaped my existence in ways I could never have imagined. It dictated my actions, controlled my thoughts, and haunted my dreams. It was a relentless master, driving me to the brink of madness with its relentless presence.
I lived in constant fear of the consequences of being caught. The punishment for escaping or rebelling was severe, often resulting in beatings, torture, or even death. The prospect of facing such a fate filled me with terror, leaving me paralyzed and helpless.
Even the smallest transgressions could lead to being caught. A misplaced word, a suspicious glance, a moment of hesitation - any of these could be enough to give me away. I had to be constantly vigilant, always on the lookout for danger.
The fear of being caught was a heavy burden to bear. It ate away at my soul, leaving me hollow and empty inside. I longed for freedom from its suffocating grip, but knew that such a thing was impossible in my current circumstances.
In the end, the fear of being caught dictated every aspect of my life as a slave. It was a shadow that followed me wherever I went, a specter that haunted my every waking moment. I could never escape its clutches, no matter how hard I tried.
