Dull||G.D.

I must've fallen asleep, because I woke up to a woman's voice speaking over the microphone.

"Hello everybody, after 82 successful hours of flying in space, we have safely landed on Zaron. Please make your way to the front of this ship while someone will lead you to the way out. Have a safe life"

That's odd. "Have a safe life". who says that? Something has been so off these past day, all of this it is making me anxious.

I shrugged that thought, telling myself I'd worry about it later, and rubbed my tired eyes.

I stretched my swollen legs and arms from the amount of sleeping and not much activity. I noticed the girl beside me had already left. Everybody else was stretching and yawning in tiredness.

I finally got up, and gently tapped on a man's shoulder signalling I wanted to pass. He moved himself away from where he was blocking me and I made my way to the the end of the line. All this was reminding me of an airplane ride, very similar.

The line was decreasing slowly, yet I didn't mind, wanting the time to pass slowly, all this stress and anxiety, and excitement getting the best of me.

Unfortunately for my luck, the line kept getting smaller by the second. In a couple of instants, I was at the front greeted by a man in a black suit.

Talking about suits and colors, I took a close look at everybody and noticed how depressing we all look with our black clothes. I wanted to rip them off of me and wear some colorful vibrant clothes, but they wouldn't allow us.

Who wouldn't allow us though?

I don't know who exactly. But there was surely a reason behind it. There's a reason for everything.

The man greeted me with a smile which I returned and asked me how I was feeling.

"I'm feeling nervous" I said afraid

"Oh, don't be love, I assure you it'll be amazing." he replied cromulent, sounding fake

His words calmed me down a little bit as I told myself he knows what he's talking about even though I didn't trust him.

"Where are we going" I asked curious

We've been walking for the past 10 minutes which feels like it's been more than that.

"I'm taking you to someone else who will help you out. He'll talk to you, get to know you and ask you numerous questions."

I nodded in response and kept following him wherever he went. I noticed there wasn't much light, it was dark and depressing, just like how my life on Earth was.

This is new start. New life, new me! Hopefully it's a better one.

"Here we are" the man said pointing to a dark room

"Wait here and someone will soon accompany you soon, okay?"

I nodded my head in response as I sat down in the black cold leather chairs. The contact with my buttocks and the leather made my breath hitch as I shivered. I looked around the room and noticed one light was on.

Odd, but okay.

I looked around me and no one was to be found nearby. I was alone in this room waiting for someone or something to come and lead me the way.

I decided to hum a song called "Six feet under" by Billie Eilish to distract me while I'm waiting. That song always put me in my feels. It always reminded of the love I never had, the love I've always wanted. It was a sad yet happy song.

I don't know how much time has passed since the guy left me here, but it's been pretty long and I'm getting scared and very impatient. Frightened to say the least. I was starting to think no one was coming for me so, I decided to get up and walk around the dark colorless room. My feet swayed around the room in sadness as my fingers touched the dark walls to lead me the way.

"Hello!, I yelled, is anyone here?"

No answer.

I kept walking around the room, trying to find a way out. Not being able to see was definitely a disadvantage.

"Hello, is anyone here?" I called out once again, desperate for an answer

Again, no answer.

I kept walking around the room trying to find a way out, but I stumbled on a huge bump on the ground. I tripped and before I could fall, I held myself on, what seemed, a door knob.

I twisted the door knob in relief, and to my surprise, I saw something I wouldn't have expected to see in my life.

Guys!!
Ik I say this alot, but I'm so excited
