It was less than a second, half a second maybe, but it changed everything. The moment that my eyes locked on to that small door I knew I had to open it. I walked across the room to the wall, and slid the huge piece of wood to the side of it. I was out of breath from the effort to move it, but still I did. I pulled the handle, but the door was locked.
Obsession is a strong word, but fitting in this case. Every day I tried opening that door. It still wouldn't budge; I tried looking everywhere I could think of for a key. I needed to know what was inside. I had this feeling I couldn't shake. Something was telling me that I needed to be there. I needed to be in that room.
One day, I walked into the auditorium where the door was, and to my surprise it was open. I made my way over slowly, and saw nothing but a white sheet covering an object I couldn't make out. Curiosity was over taking me as I crept closer and closer to my destination. I reached the thresh hold, and grabbed on to the sheet. When I yanked it off of the contents hidden below I gasped in complete shock.
Staring back at me was my pale and cold figure. I died, and I don't remember how. I don't remember anything before seeing the door. Who would do this to me? Broken sobs escaped my mouth as I fell to my knees. Nothing made sense anymore, at least not to me.
