The door was opened wide and somebody entered...
A chill goes up on her spine.
She musters the courage to raise her head and looked bravely at the door.
And she couldn't believe what she saw!
She saw an old woman standing at the door looking at her.
The old woman's hair was all white, she was holding a tray in her hands.
The aroma of delicious food assailed her senses and the rumbling of her stomach is deafening, she thinks she will pass out due to hunger. "Grandma, why did you imprisoned me here in this room?" she questioned her.
The old woman ignored her question. "Child, eat your dinner..." she said and put the tray on the floor. She turned around and exited the room.
"Grandma, please come back!" Sofia shouted. She kicked angrily at the door trying to open it to no avail, the old woman didn't come back.
She looked at the food and lowered herself on the floor in misery. She needs to eat to cultivate her strength. She plans to escape later if the woman returned to get the tray.
She began eating... in fairness... the food tastes delicious! She eats with gusto!
Half an hour later, she finished eating.
She placed the tray in the farthest corner of the room. This way, the old woman has to enter the room to get the tray and she will run for the door and escape this place!
She will pretend that she had fallen asleep soundly so that the woman will lower her guard down.
That's the only sound plan she can think of right now.
It better work or else she's dead meat!
She studied the room. It has no window, she can't see the world outside. But the old woman mentioned the word dinner, so it must be already evening outside.
She's wondering if she's still in Moraderry Town? Or taken to another town?
If she's still in Moraderry Town, the moment she can escape successfully out of this place she will head back to the manor straight away! She will no longer run away! She regretted her stupid decision to leave the manor and now she suffered this horrific situation.
She got to escape this place that is giving her the creeps!
She lies down on the floor hugging her meager possession. Then she noticed that she was no longer wearing her wet clothes and the attire that she wore right now does not belong to her. Did that old woman change her clothes?
She released a deep sigh. When she made her escape from her room in the manor, she was full of high spirit and energy, but now, all that is left in her are regrets, sadness, and fear.
She closed her eyes, pretending that she's in a deep sleep.
Hours went by.
It was one hour before midnight when the door opened and the old woman returned.
The woman entered the room after seeing the tray was placed far from the door. She walked towards the tray and picked it up...
Sofia opened her eyes and rose quickly, she bolted to the door and ran away from the room at the speed of light.
The old woman was left alone in the room stunned by how fast the girl had gone out from the room!
She exited the room, shaking her head in amusement. "Stupid girl!" she murmured to herself. She walked in the hallway of the basement in a relaxed manner, not even worried that her prisoner had escaped her prison.
Meanwhile...
Sofia was running back and forth, what's going on? She can't find the door that will take her outside. All she can see on every side are rooms lining up in the hallway, about ten of them, including the room where she was being imprisoned.
She noticed that if she walked towards the end of the hallway, she's meet up with a dead-end, another wall!
Huh? Her brows knitted together in confusion.
Damn! This place has no entrance and exit!
Just ten rooms lined up on both sides!
This is impossible!
Where did that old woman go?
There is only one hallway in this place!
The old woman will surely pass this hallway! But she can't see her! She didn't even saw the woman exited. Was she still inside that room waiting for her to come back?'
She hurriedly went back to the room and opened the door, she took a peek inside, it's empty!
But where did that woman go!
Suddenly she experienced a massive headache just thinking about her dilemma.
Slowly, she began to realize that the old woman is not human and this place is full of mystery.
The inhabitants of this place are non-humans! But what is their origin? What kind of people are they?
Of all people, why they chose to abduct her?
She went back inside the room, her energy and spirit were depleted.
She went inside the bathroom to relieve her bladder.
While sitting on the bowl, she looked at her hands and noticed something...OMG... her amethyst ring was gone!
Where did it go?
Did she lose it in the forest?
But she remembered that she was still wearing it when she sought shelter under the shade of the tree!
OMG! Did that terrifying creature took her ring!
But where is that horrifying creature? She wants to ask if that beast took her ring!
