Chapter 8 - At GwenDolyn's House

After investigating Secretary Evans's house I reached as fast as i could so to reach Triple X Agency to tell the President about the news.

....

After reaching at the agency , i sprinted towards President's office and knocked on the door. I was panting and entered inside. "I t-o Sec-retary h-house i-investigation d-d-one" I said between my pants.

President sat on the chair ; full of confusion and chuckled , "Miss Clearwater , sit down and drink some water first then tell me whatever happened." he said. He rang his bell to call people for bringing water. After finishing the whole glass , I explained everything very briefly to the him -- At least in the best way i could.

He listened everything very carefully , After listening to everything I said he spoke first -- "That was a very intense investigation. I am sure you did it very well , Now I think you should head towards Gwendolyn's house tomorrow." "Okay , sir." I said and headed towards my house.

....

The next day , I woke up early in the morning and dressed up very fast to go to Gwendolyn's house.

While I was driving there , it took me a lot of time to reach there (I was scared that it doesn't become the afternoon)

The house was beautiful. I cannot describe how spectacular house it looked --- it was a modern house , it looked like a mansion. The walls outside were painted with white and brown.

Staring at it for a long time , I realized that there was no possible way to break into her house. I thought there must be a way in , then the only way to enter looked like only through the front door.

I kept looking around the house thinking about how to possibly get inside without letting Gwendolyn know.

After around twenty minutes, I thought I should go through the front door only. There was a passkey at the side of the door and to be able to access it to put the correct password , I need a key.

I looked around the house again and while looking around the front door , the stumbled upon a flower vase beside the door.

To my horror , it broke into thousands of pieces. But in the shattered pieces I found a small key.

I grabbed it and put it on the lock; now I can access the passcode. I tried to think what could be the passcode.

I kept putting the wrong passcode and I was very raged by now so I took a deep breath to calm myself down. Now only one more attempt was left. If I guess it wrong this time , Gwendolyn will probably get notified of some intruder trying to go inside.

Suddenly something very random came in my mind --- "REVENGE" I don't know why it happened , but trusting on my guts , I put it and suprisingly ---- it opened.

I tried to find anything I could inside the house. Although there were no such signs of anything suspicious going on ; but something strange I felt.

It looked a silence before a storm. After finding nothing special on the ground floor , I decided to go upstairs.

There were three rooms and one bathroom. I decided to look into the rooms first.

The first room I entered , suprisingly , it was not even a room the whole thing was blocked by bricks and same was with the other room. The last room I checked was a big bedroom.

It had white and orange walls , a cozy bed and huge windows of glass.

I looked around everywhere for clues and I found a picture frame on the bed side table. It looked like her family.

I headed to the bathroom and while looking around I accidentally pushed on the shower button and whoosh.

I became wet from the water , I didn't even had any clothes to put on ; I felt disgusted.

I noticed the glass partition ; there was a clock drawn , showing 3 o'clock (it was drawn by someone from steam.)

I felt confused but decided to take a note on this information.

While checking around the sink , I found a button , which looked quite unusual to be at such a absurd location. "What this could be?" I thought.

I pressed the button nervously and witnessed a certain change in the surroundings , I heard a click and the whole bathroom turned into a type of control room.

This place is filled with security cameras! Suddenly a video opened ; Gwendolyn was standing in front , with a evil smile. "You think you can come at my house without me knowing? You will never be able to find anything you fool! Now you don't have any chance left as you are going to be locked in this impossible house by me forever!!"

She said and now I started to feel the taste of horror , fear and somehow rage too. She started laughing in a evil way and the video ended , with that there was another click "looks like I actually am locked in this house now" I thought.

Is there really a way to escape?
