Forgetting to Read

I woke up in an unfamiliar place.

It was dark, and my lips were parched.

I look around and notice I'm in an unfamiliar room, but in a comfortable bed.

I sit up and lip my lips, and look beside me.

There's a note on the table that reads,

I went out for necessities. Keep your mind occupied with the books I left angel.
- L

I looked beside the lamp to find a book titled ALASKA.

It was a strange thing to think about.

A man, a stranger, to kidnap you, yet leave you with a book to keep you occupied.

And to have the nerve to call you angel.

The man with the strange enigmatic, blue eyes with the tousled, swept hair, was eveything I didn't expect.

I jumped out of bed and my heart began to pound relentlessly.

Unforeseenly, there was another note on the door that said,

You're mine, you're not going anywhere.

The door was completely locked, and so was the door to my hope.

I was predestine to fill my heart with no faith of escaping.
