Memoria

Chapter 3

The place was a gigantic labyrinth. It seemed that it was composed only of interminable white corridors, so clean and so bright, that it felt unreal. There were some mirrors placed symmetrically on both sides of the aisles. It was very modest but felt so luxurious.

As they were walking in the identical and infinite hallways, Elyria stopped by a mirror, looked at her design who was now as blue as Al's one, she smiled and asked, "So where am I suppose to go?" Still analyzing the design.

"What do you mean I?" He answered, raising an eyebrow in sign of confusion. She sighed, turned around looked at him scrupulously in his eyes,

"Well, where am I supposed to go to be free, and know why I'm here. But obviously you don't know where cause we've been walking in circles for at least two hours, twenty-seven minutes."
"Huuuh, it's not because it's all the same everywhere that we've been walking in circle."
"So where am I suppose to go?"
"Why do you keep saying I? You're not the only one who wants to get out."
"Well if you don't know where we're going then of what utility you are to me?"
"Excuse me?"
"I've saved your life for the simple reason that you have the same design near your eye, so I thought that you could at least be of any help."
"Well would you listen to yourself?! You're very rude and I've done nothing to you!"
"CAN'T YOU SEE THAT THERE IS NO EXIT?!" She then screamed those words, exhausted and annoyed by his lack of observation.

He looks around, and realizes the emptiness of the hallways and the lack of doors, exits, stairs. He steps back and reached the extremity of the wall facing the mirror and sat down. He was thinking.

******
He's really cute when his thinking you have to admit that. So Elyria #2 why are you so rude to that guy?
******
"Shut up" she whispered to herself.

"Did you say something?" Al asked, now looking at Elyria.
***
So now that you're stuck with a handsome guy what will you do?
***
Louder, looking at the ground, "I said shut up."
"Excuse me?? I haven't said anythi..."
"Not you, dumb*ss." She finally looked at him. He was more confused than ever.
***
Helloo can I remind you that you're not me and that I'm not you meaning that we're two different persons in a body? Unless I'm you and that you're me but we don't know that. Anyway if that's the case you're pissing me off. If you are me and I am you I'm pissing myself off HAHAHAHA.
***
Elyria's head started to hurt she didn't understand what the voice in her head was talking about. She decided to ignore it.

"So little genius, do you have an idea?" She sat down next to him.

Still looking at the mirror she frowned, and looked around, and noticed the pattern in the architecture. Everything was symmetric.

"Wait when did you get out of the room?" she asked him.

"Yesterday... why?" He answered frowning.

"What did you do since then?"
Elyria noticed something was wrong but couldn't pinpointed what. It frustrated her. There was something she couldn't understand.

Alrius stood up, as if he was remembering and trying to reproduce exactly what he did yesterday. Closing his eyes he started to walk away from the wall.

"I walked out of my room, looked both way, trying to orientate myself a little bit but couldn't so then I walked to the left for about 30 minutes. I was at a corner of a corridor but then heard two persons talking, so I stayed where I was."

"Were the two persons situated near one of these mirrors?" She asked.

"How did you know?" He asked, starting to understand where she was going.

"How can you not? It's so obvious! How did you get to me? Was one door open?"

"Yea... No way!" They both looked at the mirror.

"Okay how do you open this." She said approaching it.

"Wait!" He suddenly said.

"What?!"

"Haven't you notice something?"

"What?"

"Haven't you heard anything?"

"No...?"

"Don't you think it's way too silent? Like we've been in here for 2 hours and a half, and we have seen no one."

"Don't tell me...."

"Nothing is sure but... it really is possible. Look around you and think."

"It's a trap." She stated.
