curse.”
“Okay, I think I have to go now. Just hope
everything goes well. Bye.” Emily yelled as she dashed out of the
room.
As Emily got out of the room, everything
looked strange. She walked past several rooms and noticed how
everything had changed in few minutes. The path seemed to be going
towards the roof and not downwards.
“Is there a tunnel in this place? This is
really weird. I really need to get out of. . .” As she turned
around, she saw a dark room without a door. Emily stepped in to see
a long staircase going downwards. “Yes! At last, I found it. I knew
this place can’t only have a way up.”
Emily pondered on what the strange man told
her as she moved down the stairs that didn’t seem to end. It was
still very dark and she couldn’t see anything as she suddenly hit
her head against something hard.
“Ouch, that hurts. I thought this was
supposed to lead me to the main door.” She rubbed her hand against
a smooth surface. “A wall? What is a wall doing here?” She
continued rubbing her hand again. Her hand struck on a small
substance.
Emily pushed the button and she noticed, the
ground came open and she fell right. “Is there no proper way of
leaving this stupid . . . whatever they call it. Maybe I just
didn’t get enough time to survey.”
Something passed by Emily and she became
frightened. “Are there other people passing through this crazy
tunnel too? This is really creeping me out. So, this is really
going to get me somewhere. Maybe I’m just seeing things.
She heard a loud thud beneath her and
prepared herself to land. As she hit the floor. She was surprised
to find a huge door in front of her. “I made it.”

“I can’t believe I’m really doing this thing.
I’m not even sure about what I’m doing. Let me just follow the
map.” Evalle said as she stumped her feet on the tarred road. “I
forgot to pick my bicycle. This is horrible.”
Evalle continued walking when she saw an
eatery. “I’m really famished. I could do with a really good meal
right now.” She stepped into the place and sat down on a chair in a
very cozy corner. As she picked up the menu pamphlet, she caught
something.
He is really cute. Why is he looking at me
anyway? I don’t think I am that attractive. I think I have to focus
on what I’m reading.
Evalle let her eyes settle on the pamphlet as
she felt a tap on her shoulder. “I have been calling you for a
while now but you didn’t reply. I hope everything is alright.”
“Oh, everything is perfect. I’m just stressed
out. Emily replied.
“Okay miss. Can I take your order
please?”
“I just need a cup of coffee. I’ll be
fine.”
“I’ll get two cups. I’m sure you will still
want to eat something else.” The waiter said with eagerness in his
voice as he walked back to the counter.
Oh my God, this guy is so cute. I’m not
really good with guys. I just hope this one will be better. I
really like him.
She was immediately jolted back to reality as
she felt a tap on her shoulder.
“Hey, I’ve been calling you for a while now.
The coffee is getting cold, you have to drink it now.” The waiter
said, sitting down opposite her with his cup of coffee in one hand
and a small spoon in the other.
“Thanks, I’m really stressed out. I’ve not
been having enough sleep. I think I’ll also need a nice meal.
Evalle said with weariness on her face.
“I knew you will still have to change your
mind. Don’t worry. I’ll get you your meal. Anyway, my name is Kevin
Kramsen. What’s yours?”
Evalle already had a wide grin. “You are very
funny. Well, I am Evalle Grustacia.”
“Okay miss.” Kevin said as he stood up and
left the table.
Wow, this guy is really something. I am
supposed to leave here very soon. I still have to find what I don’t
know.
Kevin came back to the table with a plate of
spaghetti and sat down opposite Evalle. What is the problem? You
seem to be thinking, every second. And looks like you
