*thud-thud-thud*
It made me stop and froze for a while, the knock startled me even though it was just a very soft tap, maybe because I was too busy thinking about things that I didn't realized and forgot that I was in the comfort room doing some monkey business. Ignoring the person who knocked at the door, I flushed the toilet then washed my hands
*THUD-THUD-THUD*
someone knocked again but this time it was louder and harder, like someone is impatiently waiting at the other side of the door. I was about to reach for the door and grab the knob when it opened forcefully that the door broke and fell down, to tell you the truth it made a mini heart attack in me. I was too stunned to re-think what had just happened.
"How...The...Hell..." are the only words came out of my mouth.
I quickly placed my right hand on my chest feeling its' hasty pounding. I stepped out of the comfort room while closing my eyes, afraid of what kind of a human being did that, because it was very impossible for someone to break a door by just pulling it and it takes a lot of force to do it.
I kept on waiting for someone to talk but heard no sign of a commotion or didn't feel any presence of a human being. I was debating myself whether to open my eyes or not because there is no way I would stay in here, closed eyes. I slowly opened my eyes and expected that there'll be a huge and bulky man in front of me,
*BOOM* A very strident and harsh booming sound exploded in my ears, even before I could open my eyes.
I felt so frightened and uneasy because I don't have any clue on what's happening. I wanted to shout for help but I couldn't even utter a word. So I fell down on my knees and started to cry, not knowing what else to do.
Then, I felt warm water dripping on my shoulder "A blood" I whispered in fear, and then fainted.
***
Feeling wet and soaked. Wait... what's that smell? *sniff-sniff* it smells blood..
wait, wait, wait! A BLOOD? I quickly opened my eyes, at first I was baffled and then *flick* I remembered it all.
The knock....
The explosion....
and then the blood...
THE BLOOD!!!
I hurriedly got up but failed my attempt because I slipped. And so I panicked, I tried to stand up but I failed again. My body can't move I can't feel my body. I tried to raise my head leisurely and firmly.
Roving my eyes approximately to all the corners of this place searching for something or someone that could help me, but to my surprise, a vast empty space met my eyes. It was a dilapidated room.
I crooked my head around hoping to see if the comfort room was still there. Unfortunately, it wasn't.
From the corner of my eye I saw a sign
"EXIT!" I blurted out, now's the chance to escape. I looked up and whispered "Thank God"
I immediately stood up and ran as fast as I can 'till I reached the door. I cautiously opened the door, but before I could even open the wood door, a very sonorous outburst of explosion hit my ears once more. Without a delay I instantly covered my ears with my bare hands.
Trickles of blood came out of my ears, and it happened all over again.
***
This is now the 4th time I've heard that explosion and the scenes kept on happening. "I GIVE UP!" I shouted out loud, while sitting on the floor.
Then I realized that the place is so plain, it's like an abandoned room. Dirt was scattering all over the place there are no windows and any furniture. The place is somehow creepy because it only had one door which is the exit door, its texture and color is matching the walls of this room that you could only recognized it by the door knob.
This place is too quiet, that it's freaking me out. I missed the noises from people that I used to hate; I wanted to hear them again and to see them once more.
I need to escape now, but the truth is that, I will never escape this....this....ah?
I don't even know when did this happened and when it started. I lay down on the floor, exhausted at the same time confused. I closed my eyes and started to think......
but, nothing came up on my mind, I couldn't quite remember what was I thinking about.
I was lost in mind;
trying to recall the things I was thinking a while ago. I'm really sure I was thinking about something. I just couldn't remember it.
So, I decided to open my eyes then looked up straight to the ceiling,
Dust and webs are scattering on the ceiling, guess I should be cleaning that later.
Scanning the ceiling for the last time, a diminutive hole caught my eyes; it's as tiny as a coin.
"I'll try to fix that" I uttered
*thud-thud-thud*
It made me stop and froze for a while, the knock startled me even though it was just a very soft tap, maybe because I was too busy thinking about things that I didn't realized and forgot that I was in the comfort room doing some monkey business.
