I had woken up, looking outside my window ready to start my day, I looked down at my iPhone and unlocked it and clicked my weather app it was a nice 80 F outside. Ready to go to the bathroom and I shut the door behind me, ( to note a single detail the door doesn't have a lock on it) and I grabbed my old flip phone and took it to the bathroom with me. And it was at least 2 bars on it. "Fuck..I gotta charge it. I'll have to do before I head out" so I continue to do my business and setting my flip phone on the counter.
*A BIT LATER*
I wash my hands, then it happend! A loud crash came into my doors. Something was outside the bathroom door. And my dog wasn't with me! I panicked, and my dog Frankie I heard him barking. And I know I couldn't open the door. And whatever was on the other side of that door was something big! I wanted to leave I really wanted to. And I heard the thing pass by the bathroom. And I held my breath. I couldn't even think what would happen.
The thing on the other side didn't think to open the door or test it to see if it's open. But thank GOD IT DIDNT TRY THE DOOR! I needed to call someone, anyone. No way in HELL WAS I GONNA OPEN THAT DOOR!I checked my flip phone, and it was on one bar, and I know I couldn't make a noise I leaned against the bathroom wall, and I slide down the wall onto my butt, and I started tearing up, whispering quietly "fuck..fuck..fuck..fuck" through my broken voice as I felt defeat I couldn't text. But I had to make the call. There wasn't an emergency service that I could text at all. And I didn't wanna leave my dog behind. And looking at the time on my wall and it read 10:30am and tears running down my face. I cried silently, feeling utter defeat. It's either I open the door..or I make the call...and I couldn't risk my life..either way I die...I could wait. And than my battery bar started blinking stating it was gonna shut down soon. And I had nothing else..I just wanted this to end. Lot of smashing outside the door and feeling defeated. And I didn't know what to do I set my flip phone aside and it silently died. Than I pulled my legs into me. And put my head on my legs and my arms around my legs. And silently felt defeat.
*moments later*
Than everything stopped..the sound I heard a door open.
