Chereads / Lockdown Danger ✔︎ / Chapter 2 - Still Trapped

Chapter 2 - Still Trapped

"Shit"

I couldn't stop thinking about what Aaron said. How come he knows why I'm on lockdown but I don't? I start scrolling through my Emails work- nothing, personal- nothing, spam- nothing.

"Ugh"

I'm panicking a little bit, and then I turn on my TV to watch the news.

"Maybe I can get something from there"

I grumble to myself. Aaron still won't pick up his damn phone. I see the news channel was covering some dumb story about a rat infested restaurant. I turned off the TV I didn't care at all. I tried to get out of my apartment but the elevator was off and the stairs were locked I was literally trapped. I decided to just breath and take advantage of this. Maybe I could do more research for my job. I get out my laptop and start going through tabs of sociologist theories and writing down the ones I want to research. I settle with the bystander theory, and do some digging. After about twenty minutes I realised I hadn't eaten breakfast. I got up off my grey couch and unsurprisingly my leg starts cramping.

"Fuck"

I said after I got up and tripped over the leg table. I start screaming internally trying not to make more noise. My leg still hurt and now my knee and back. I decided to lay on the floor for twenty minutes then got up and tried making toast. While I get the bread out my elbow knocks the egg I had saved right on top of my white tiled floors. I started having a mental breakdown and just gave up and went upstairs to take a nap. After about three hours I noticed a had a missed call from Will, Aaron's brother. So I called back and he picked up.

"Hey Will what's up?"

"I'm wondering have you talked to Karen recently?"

"Um no we haven't talked since senior year in high school"

"Well Aaron said she was going to-"

"Hold up Aaron called you. when?"

"Thirty minutes ago"

"Are you serious he won't pick up any of my calls"

"Dude his service ran out he used his last call to tell me that Karen and him were staying over for the Lockdown. They haven't come here yet and I'm worried."

"Oh damn Aaron forgot to pay his service bill that makes more sense now. What's this lockdown even about, and maybe Aaron's just running late."

"He better hope so or I'm gonna kill him my self. Bye anyway thanks Marc."

"Hey you didn't-"

****Beeeeeeep****

Of course the call ended just when I needed to talk to him- ugh I can't take this bullshit anymore I need to talk to someone else.

"Ugh"

I ring Sophia

328-493-9273

"Hey" she says "last night was fun"

I stopped

"What about last night-"
