I don't even want to go to school today. I should've told my parents about the past events... However, I just get up and prepare for another haunting day. On my way, Carrie eyes me with empathy as I mumble "Everything is fine.." over and over. The school stands in front of us. We gulp and enter. No Baldi? Hmm... Carrie sighs in relief, but I keep my guard up. Other than the chatter of the students around us, the school is quiet. Too quiet... I dart my eyes around the hall for any sign of Baldi, but none was seen. I gently open the class door.("...Sayo--") Carrie gasps as she sees Baldi there. I run outside with her hand in mine. Unfortunately, in front of the door was the bully. Shit, there's nothing on us!! "No items..? No items, no pass." We have to take another route. We run to the next exit. I scream. There's a robot with a heart-shaped... something... inside of him. He turns around. We back away, only to bump into Playtime. I sit on the floor, hands on my forehead. The next thing I knew, a loud voice screamed, and I passed out from a concussion. I woke up in terrible pain, and I find myself in the room with the janitor, A.K.A. Gotta Sweep, the broom. I hear footsteps in front of the door, and I try to stay quiet. Baldi enters the room and immediately spots me. He gets closer to me with something in his hands. It's too short to be the ruler... He jerks up and turns around. At the door is Addie, cupcake shooter in hand.(XD) She yells her battle cry as cupcakes shoot at him. I laugh at the sight. Baldi then grabs the launcher and breaks it, cupcakes falling on the ground. Addie screams and runs away. He turns back to me as the janitor starts talking. "Looks like it's sweeping time!!!" Baldi starts shaking. "Oh shit..." "GOTTA SWEEP SWEEP SWEEP!!!" I go wide-eyed. Baldi screams as Gotta Sweep begins sweeping. He's taken away, and I dart out of the room. Playtime stands there with a sinister expression and walks toward me. "Let's play!" Her voice has a different tone. I try to run, but I fall. Playtime ties my legs together with her jump-rope. She takes my shoes off and scritches my socked soles. I start laughing. I have to escape, but I can't get up. Baldi walks over to us and smiles. He traps my arms with his legs and drags his fingers across my sides. "EEEEEP!!!" I squeal, squirming as hard as I can. Baldi's long arms benefit him when he tickles me, allowing him to maintain contact with my sides when he's in this position. His arms move back, his fingers digging into my vulnerable underarms. Soon enough, though, the bell rings. "Aww, that makes me sad..." Playtime unties my legs and leaves. Baldi gets up. I put my shoes on and leave as well. Addie walks up to me. "Sorry that I couldn't be any help." I have a look of confusion. "What do you mean? You tried your best. That's all that matters." She smiles. "Yeah! Natsuki and Yuri, away!!!" We walk home. Maybe Addie's words will help me have a good night's sleep.
