Pleaser To Meet You

Chapter 15

Date is September 23, 4052
    I was not sure what to do. I was a little stunned.

            What day is it by the way, have I been gone for a while?

The wind started to howl outside and the lights flickered. The fans that create the wind are extremely big so it takes up the majority of the power. The big one was just watching Geo walk away. He walked over and turned on all the lights in the building. He then walked over to the side where there were stairs leading up to a little room. Without hesitation he walked up to them and went into the room. The bigger one looked at me.

            Oh I think I pressed the wrong button. Yeah that's the whole point to get under his skin. You are right though it was kind of too much.

He walked over to me and took a deep breath. I smiled sympathetically at him. As I looked up at him and he got down on one knee to look me in the eye. Without hesitation I say.
    "You seem like a Jack"
He smiled and looked at the floor by my feet. His voice was raspy when he said.
    "What are we, your puppies?"
I chuckled and said.
    "No but it's easier to deal with yall if you have names, also its sad that yall dont have names"
He seemed sad and looked back over my shoulder at the wall. I looked over my shoulder to see what he was looking at but he was just looking at the wall. I softly said.
    "That's a sensitive topic for you guys isn't it?"
He nodded and I responded with.
    "Why?"
He got back up and said.
    "I should go check on him"
I watch him walk away and up the stairs. The room got too quiet for my liking and it seemed as if the darkness was fading in and out. It made me wonder if the lights were bad or if the power was not good around here. I got a good look at the building and the car that they brought me here in. It was fairly big but it was very empty.  The car was sleek but discrete where if someone saw it they would ignore it and not be drawn to it by its style or anything. It did not look like a company car but it was formal.    
    I looked back up at the room. Their silhouettes were in the window and I could see that they were talking. Yet it did not look like a loud conversation but one that probably was important. I could not help but let my mind run a little. It's hard in a situation like this to not think of everything in one second. Every possible scenario, every outcome, everything they could be saying. Yet it is only what ifs and maybes that can be formulated. There is no actual evidence of anything.
    The door opened and only Jack walked out. He looked down at me from across the room and then started walking down the stairs. It seemed like forever before he reached the bottom even though it was only about ten stairs. He made his way over to me and I could not help but get uneasy. A man of his size is intense as it is but him also being a cyborg does not help. He stood in front of me and asked simply what I wanted to eat. At this point I forgot that I was hungry and the stress and anxiety did not help me decide if I was actually going to eat or not. I looked up at him and told him to get me something simple and nothing actually meal wise. I am not used to eating big meals anyways as you guys know. I have no idea if I could even eat a large meal. He looked at me and nodded his head. He asked if I wanted anything specific. I told him no and he walked back into the room. They talked for a brief moment then Jack walked back down the stairs. He got in the car and drove off. Geo was still up in the room. I could see him pacing back and forth.
    I moved my hands to see if they were loose or not and they were not. I then moved my feet and they were loose enough to get out of the rope. I got them out and had no idea what I was going to do next. The chair was metal and my hands were pretty tight. I could not break the chair or wiggle out. Even if I flip the chair and try to push my hands over the top I think they are tied to the sides as well. At this point I have no idea how long ima be in this chair or how long Jack is going to be gone. I could try and get Geo to let me loose or something but I might have made him mad earlier.
    I start humming a good song. One that I have remembered ever since I was a child. It was a lullaby they would sing to me when I could not sleep. It's comforting to me still and in this situation it's something that I need. The sound echoed through the building softly and it was very soothing. I hummed a little louder enjoying the sound. I noticed Geo looking out of the window. I could not help but gently rock my body to the sound as well. Creating my own safe space for a second. I heard him open the door and that did not stop me though. I watched him stand on the balcony. He listened to me hum and I was surprised he did not tell me to hush. At this point I had it on repeat because I already sang through it once. My voice was getting tired though so I stopped. Even though I stopped he still stood there and stared at me, I wondered what he wanted.
