It was the night of the full moon that I realized that I was in a strange room and the curtains were drawn. I looked around and noticed that nothing was familiar. The walls and beddings were black in color with blood red mattress covers. That moment I couldn't think of what to do but remain cautions of my surrounding.

I laid still, not realizing that I couldn't move my limbs. I tried moving my left arm but got no response. I tried my right and got the same outcome. Then it hit me. I was drugged. Before I could finish looking around the room, I heard a key turn in the key hole so I closed my eyes immediately and started pretending to sleep.

Moments later, I heard footsteps and felt a figure sitting next to me. Before I knew it, my eyes were open and I found myself in my bedroom.
"Damn!"
I exclaimed as realization struck.
"It was all but a dream. Weird. From all the things I can dream about it had to be something like that?"
I asked myself as I sat up and leaned on my headboard.
"How can this be? I am but an indoors kind of person."

I am one of those people one may consider  antisocial. Basically, ever since my graduation, I haven't left the house. I could say I was going to school but, I'd be lying. I was practically home schooled half my life. Only difference is that, I was home schooled up till my last semester.

I was forced to start school like the normal kids and I graduated with them but, when it came to collage, there was an exception. After I graduated my mom and dad gave me one of their companies of my choosing as a graduation gift and I found myself leading a multibillion-dollar tech company.

Others would say I'm quite the catch. I've never entered my company in any way though... people would pretend to be me sometimes for fame but, I wonder how my CEO manages to deal with all the publicity. A man of his word and hardworking doing all the work for me like a pro. All I do is just send him all the documents he needs and I am done for the day. Others would say, he is the brains behind the whole operation.

Well, since I don't go out am always pestered by my workers to go for a run and all sorts but sadly, they can't move me. Sometimes by choice I just hit my gym and am done for the day. Most people wonder, what does a person that stays indoors do all day?

Well, I am a computer specialist so I do what we specialists do at our free time. Stay home and create apps for myself and sometimes hack my mom and dad's security system just to check up on how they're doing.
Of course, I get caught since I leave some loose ends in my firewall but... by the end of the day all is well that ends well.
