章節 7: Must it be this?
CRUSHED!
There was a loud sound coming from the couple's room, loud enough to be heard in the garden.
The building isn't soundproof thus every sound is heard easily.
"Damn! Mike is everything okay?" shouted Evy. I could hear her footsteps getting closer to the bedroom...
"Mike, I thought you are helping with our packing and you are already breaking stuff," she said.
"Hey Lisa, I gotta go, she's coming"
I ended my conversation with Lisa on the phone and turned on the light, stood in front of the bluish wardrobe.
I raised my voice high to reply here
"you shouldn't be talking much baby, I mean you should just go for walk," I said.
She bashed into the room like a flash of thunder...
"Gosh it's time for her nagging, I thought".
Crushed
I exclaimed, "Hey this time it wasn't from here".
She laughs and smiles... It's quite scary to have such an expression from her—how could she laugh and smile in this situation... I broke a glass cup, it's her favorite and she didn't react.
She came closer to where the broken pieces are.
"You should be careful not to step in it, and I aren't going to die ... not think of such," she said whiles smirking.
That wasn't Evy was she...
I was thinking exactly that she was about to die. One must be smart when walking with your enemy, the fact of being a fool, an idiot in front of everyone isn't because I'm truly foolish but to know your enemy's weakness or secret you must be a fool.
My inquisitive, Mother inlaw came running to the room as if she heard an explosion...
"What's wrong here?" She exclaimed.
"She could at least knock," I thought.
Evy didn't mind her mum as she was still picking up the broken glasses.
SECRET HIDEOUT.
The soundproofed house, a loud noise coming from a very much deeper room, it's called the death trap.
Soon as there's a change in your cells or if the body is emitting some changes, you will be kept there with the knowledge of exhibiting a thirty percent chance of time traveling.
No one knows if the mistress is the Psychopath or just a science body.
"I have injected many painkillers but he doesn't stop screaming" one scientist whispered to Sir.
"Alright, then add another dosage" replied Sir.
"But Sir, that's overdose and that is against our policy"
"Have we ever followed the health principle? Just do as you are asked." He replied.
As always he's on a check on the patients... Not a patient but the laboratory rats. There's no way for a patient to be treated that way. Each room has its specific meaning but once you get to the dead end as the name States it's your rabbit hole!
There aren't enough chances of surviving.
There comes a cold dark room, very cold per the screams of the people...
"I want to go home, can someone get me out of here, Help! Help" whimpered a voice of Nodle.
"Why is that guy still here, shouldn't he be released"questioned Peterz.
"You see, not everyone is lucky as number 17. I guess his number made him get out of here" replied Sir.
"We should just be the mistresses puppet" he added.
"But why isn't she talking about his escape"Peterz continued.
A siren wailed...
All scientists and doctors moved to rush to a large room like a pavilion.
"The mistress is coming," said a doctor running to the assembly.
"Let's talk about this later, for now, the psycho is in. And still, we won't see her face but she can see us. " Sir replied Peterz.
They all gathered on the ground—the speakers were turned on to listen to the mistress.
"I am truly excited to have you all work for the future. It's said no one can time travel but we are to prove them wrong,
LAUGHS I am proving them wrong already. It's been my grace and money that has brought us so far!" Says the mistress.
"Amen, hallelujah!" Responded the workers.
It's some sort of worship... This is when the rumors began...
The anonymous mistress continued:
"I'm not a bad person, this world is full of darkness and you all know that.
I'm simply trying to make a better change in the world. We all wish to change certain things in the past and even a few minutes.
I, therefore promise to bring out the biggest picture after the rats(rats: referring to the people kidnapped for the practical)" she chortled.
NEXT DAY
The early sun makes the day look much prettier cause I'm leaving home. We set packing... She requested bathing together before leaving my in-law's house.
"Is this some sort of ritual? You've never, ever said that unless when we used to date" I asked.
"We must hurry up, mum asked the chauffeur to drive us home instead of taking a flight back" she replied.
After preparing to leave, I went to my father-in-law's room to seek his blessings.
CHUCKLING
"You are here, Mike," he said.
I was wondering how a man with dementia, chuckling and knowing of my presence. He has been pretending all this while during my stay here.
He walked towards me like a tortoise... He has this muscular body and he is a type of sugar daddy. Now I know where my wife got her beauty.
"Yeah dad, I'm here. I came to say goodbye and receive my blessings" I responded.
"Hahaha, hahaha! I thought so. You were always giving me my medication and I hate you for that. Do you really think I will bless you? Mike" he said.
I obediently responded, "Dad, I promise to take care of your daughter and make sure she never feels lonely or lacks anything".
He turned to look at the window and said
"Boy, gosh! How can you take care of my daughter when you aren't mentally stable? What's that you suffer from... Tinnitus!" He lashed out.
I didn't say a word over there, his dementia came in and started shouting and screaming.
I left his room before I get curses instead of blessings.
I bumped into the housekeeper...
She is beautiful one might think she's the sister of Evy.
Wait, there wasn't anything like a family picture in this house.
"Sorry, sir! Madam asked me to call you out 'cause the driver is in" she said.
"Okay, thanks."
I replied as I walked passed her. The chauffeur was already standing by the car while my wife was sitting in already. He came to take my bag immediately after he saw me approaching him.
It was quite a tough journey but reached it in the afternoon. Evy didn't alight at home, she prepared on her way and alighted at the office.
It was a perfect opportunity to go and visit my dear friend, Lisa.
I had a sharp shooting pain in my leg, it feels like I couldn't move... I made it slowly to our pouch for an afternoon of fresh air, I could hear all distinct noises closer, the sound of the cars, music from bars, people chattering... I held my head, forehead to be exact. I checked my time and it was 1:15 pm.
"This is a different symptom. Is it because I have suppressed the Tinnitus and that's why I'm having this" I thought.
My heart was racing faster than a man falling in love.
For a while, I felt okay, No—from the look of time it was 2:15 pm.
It took me an hour without noticing, this thing is getting serious. I really have to see Lisa, she might know what to do.
EVY'S OFFICE!
The workers seem fond of Evy, and they prepared a welcome ceremony for her, it's a surprise. They arranged the office just as the wedding hall just to welcome their boss.
She got to the office and there was darkness... Total darkness.
"They didn't report to work, oh I see it's because took a holiday off, they are also resting, not bad," she thought.
"Welcome Madam!" They shouted and burst flowers on her.
At the hospital where Lisa works, I decided to surprise her with my visit.
She doesn't know I returned earlier and even better to visit her.
She opened her office door escorting a patient she had just attended to.
She always looks stunning in her white gown and reminded me of Jim.
"Shit! Why does she have to put on heavy make-up, wow was she expecting me? I know of course I'm hot and nice"I thought.
"Oh, Mike you here already!" she smiled...
I stood up to her and whistled, you look damn good, she blushed,
We got to her office, as we have a fake schedule in case my wife calls. She doesn't know if the person I have been receiving psychotherapy from is actually Lisa.
She brought up coffee, turned on a countryside music
♪Dolly Parton - Coat of many colors♪
"Here you go Mike, I know you love lattes," she said with a stunning look.
I grabbed the cup and touch her hand... I got a short dream—I shook my head.
"It seems I'm tired," I said.
"Oh yeah! The journey was tough right" she responded.
There was a knock on the door.
"Who's knocking, I thought it was stated you are with a patient," I asked Lisa.
"Well! You can come in" she shouted.
I continued gulping my coffee...
The door opened and there comes a guy exactly like Jim.
I saw a number which it seems it was kind of an identity tool to find their laboratory rats.
I was in utter shock but one thing was wrong— Lisa didn't recognize Jim... She was just smiling at him.
"Hello, welcome" she welcomed him.
"Hi, I didn't know someone was here," he said with his cute voice as always.
SUSPENSE MUSIC PLAYS!
All I could do was stare into his eyes and look at Lisa who was still smiling at him.
"Is she Lisa? Or something isn't right?" I thought.
