I was blinded by the flashing lights as I open my eyes, but luckily I wasn't tied up or anything. After adjusting to my surroundings, I stood up and left the room I was in. I thought I was in a remoted area, turns out the room was soundproof. People are busy minding their own businesses. They either talk to their phones, smash the keyboards, walk around, or just sleep on the couch in the corner. I closed the door behind me, I knew it was a steel door! But somehow I was caught red handes by the scene in front me. Now all their attention was brought to me. Before I consider going back inside the room, someone ordered them to go back to work. I was met with a pair of smilling faces on my right, it was Evan and Annie.
"𝑾𝒉𝒚 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒘𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒂 𝒃𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒌 𝒔𝒖𝒊𝒕 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒃𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒌 𝒅𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒔? 𝑨𝒎 𝑰 𝒅𝒆𝒂𝒅?"
I asked them but they just laughed at my remarks.
"𝑶𝒉 𝒈𝒆𝒆𝒛 𝑪𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒂... 𝒘𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝒖𝒑 𝒈𝒊𝒓𝒍! 𝑻𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒊𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑴𝒊𝒏𝒕"
"𝑨𝒏𝒏𝒊𝒆'𝒔 𝒓𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕. 𝑾𝒆𝒍𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒃𝒂𝒄𝒌 𝑪𝒆𝒍!"They greeted me but I onlynlook at them both confused.
"𝑴𝒊𝒏𝒕? 𝑾𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒕? 𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝒎𝒆𝒂𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒆?"
I was expecting an explanation for all of these, but I only received a shrugged from the two. This is news to me, or not, well I can't tell them that. I let myself be led by them to somewhere... cozy and comfortable. I saw Evan pressed the number below the highest floor in the buttons of the elevator, so I thought it would be like the head office something, full of high-tech stuffs, all glass and rich, but it wasn't. It was a very home like place, sure there are computers and stuffs for work, but it's like a place for family. There are bird cages in the terrace though, I could see it cause the border is all glass and the curtains are up. There are sofas of different lengths on the corners, and a few rooms on the other side. Laptops, cables, tablets, and other gadgets are scattered everywhere except for the computers, those were placed in one of the rooms. There are stack of papers over the desks and overall I can say it does suits my taste.
"𝑻𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒇𝒍𝒐𝒐𝒓 𝒊𝒔 𝒄𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒆𝒅 𝑬𝒂𝒈𝒍𝒆𝒔. 𝑻𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒊𝒔 𝒘𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒐𝒏𝒈, 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒑𝒆𝒐𝒑𝒍𝒆, 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒆, 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒌, 𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒔 𝑪𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒂. 𝑬𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒇𝒍𝒐𝒐𝒓 𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒐𝒏𝒈𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒚𝒐𝒖. 𝑬𝒂𝒈𝒍𝒆𝒔, 𝒊𝒔 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒔."
It's her. The woman in black dress last night.
"𝑰... 𝑰 𝒅𝒐𝒏'𝒕 𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒅..."
I still face them with the same confused look. The woman was trying to say something when we were interrupted by the heavy footsteps coming towards us. A man is now standing with us, a little younger than me, considering his face and physic, however he was very tall. He was wearing a robe just like Evan, Annie, and the woman in black, I still don't know her name and I dare not to ask. Well all of them are wearing black, is this some kind of color coding?
"𝑰 𝒃𝒓𝒐𝒖𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝒊𝒕 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒎𝒆, 𝑴𝒔. 𝑻𝒂𝒏𝒆."
"𝑮𝒐𝒐𝒅! 𝑵𝒐𝒘 𝒆𝒏𝒍𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕𝒆𝒏 𝒖𝒔 𝒂𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝑪𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒂'𝒔 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏. 𝑴𝒆𝒎𝒐𝒓𝒚. 𝑪𝒐𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏."
