SLAP!
I take a slap to the face. "You disappointment!" She yells. My cheek stings from the pain. What did I do to deserve this...
The door slams open, "Can you both stop?!" He shouts. "Sorry.." The woman says. I watch closely as they both walk out of the door. After a few seconds, I pick my self up, slightly shaking, and walk to a seat near a window. Five stories high... I shake my head and stop myself from going into a daze. I look at my watch, 4:00. I should head back now...
I walk out the long narrow doorway and walk through the endless corridors. Will the hallways ever end?
I finally make my way out of that building. While I was walking, many peculiar things were happening. A car accident, an antique shop now closed, and the big hands of the clock in my mind had stopped ticking. I eventually get to my apartment to find my roommate, waiting for me. She gives me a warm smile, "Welcome home~" I scoff, "Can you not...." Her long black hair glistens at the mere light of ceiling lamps, her eyes have a bright sparkle in them, and she wears a blue jacket over her white dress. Seeing her just puts a smile on my face.
"So... How was work~?" She asks, trying to strike a conversation. I sigh, "It was," I paused before continuing. Do I tell the truth? No. I shouldn't. I don't want her getting involved. "Great."
"Hm..." She squinted her eyes and leans forward a bit, "And how do I know you're not lying?" Of course, always suspecting me of lying. "Just trust me." I respond.
"Hmph," She gives me a slight pout, "Well, dinner is on the dining table! I'm gonna take a shower and head to bed..." Huh? She gave off a slight somber feel when saying that. "Hey, uh.." I pause to realize that she already left. I shrug it off and head to the dining table, she's probably just having problems with friends or something. I devour my food in merely seconds, my mouth practically inhaling it. I grab my water bottle and chug it as I head over to the couch and flop lazily on it. I reach for the remote but my arm couldn't reach so far. I let out a huff of defeat as I manually stand up to get the remote.
As I turn it on, a random show with a bunch of idols immediately turns on. Huh? Was she watching this? I stare for a moment at the idols dancing. There were two in particular that caught my eye. The first one had long dark blue pigtails, sapphire for eyes, and a blue and yellow color scheme. The other had a more teal shade of blue for hair, a messy bun, and red and blue eyes. She seemed to have more of a red and blue color palette. They both wore the same uniform, with accessories corresponding to their respective colors. The teal one wore a large white and red jacket over hers for some reason. I watch as the characters dance along with some sort of anime type song. They look inhumane in a way. As if they were fictional...
I shake my head to catch myself out of that daze. Why was I staring for so long..? It was as if they were sirens, luring me in with their almost delectable song. I quickly turned off the TV and headed to my room.
I tumble over to my room and flop onto the bed, embracing the smell of my pillow while I'm at it. I turn myself over and stare at the ceiling. My body tenses up. The air around me feels cool. Too cool. The AC isn't on. I feel someone's eyes being laid upon me without my consent. I freeze.
Someone is watching.
Someone is staring.
Someone is there.
Behind that door.
Someone is there.
Someone is there.
