Mamoru leaves and closes the door behind him. I run-up to the door and see if I can open it but it seems to be locked. It didn't look like the lock was on the outside so how did they lock the door. I look back around the room and see a small hallway, that must be where the rooms are.
Yuki: Hello....Is anyone here?
This better not be Eisuke's way of keeping me here in the hotel. I pull out my phone and see if I am able to text somebody, but there is no signal. I look back up but nothing has changed. I don't think anyone is here. I seat down at the table and look at all the sweets.
Mad Hatter: Alice has finally come to the tea party.
Yuki: Aaaah.
I jump off the seat and turn around.
Mad Hatter: Is everything ok Alice? I hope you enjoy the sweets. I got them for you when I heard you where coming.
Yuki: When did they tell you I was coming?
Mad Hatter: A couple of days ago. I have been so excited to welcome you here that I even decorated your room, Alice.
Yuki: How long did they say I was going to be here?
Mad Hatter: Not sure, I stopped listening when they were talking about that. I want to make sure your comfortable here in Wonderland.
Yuki: Are there other ways out of this room?
Mad Hatter: No, there is only that door and it locks after someone opens it.
I feel like I am stuck in a weird situation. I look back around the room and see a small box hidden by some fack plants.
Yuki: What's in the box over there?
Mad Hatter: It holds the key to the door. It can only open when you guess the riddle.
Yuki: Can I ask you a favor, since it looks like I will be here awhile.
Mad Hatter: Anything for you Alice.
Yuki: Can you call me Yuki.
Mad Hatter: If that is what Alice wishes then ok, but you have to be my friend.
Yuki: Ok.
A few days later
I've gotten used to being here in the basement and I learned some things about the Mad Hatter. His real name is Rhion and his from London. He has a hard time making friends and He dresses up as the Mad Hatter because it gives him more confidence to talk to people. I really like the room he decorated for me. I thought it was going to be like the rest of the room but it's a very modern style room. I am right now in the main room, I wonder if Kiyoharu found out what happened. I feel bad that I was not able to text him about what Eisuke did.
Mad Hatter: Yuki, what's wrong? Why do you look so sad?
Yuki: I was just thinking about one of my friends. I haven't been able to talk to them since I been down here.
Mad Hatter: Do you not like this place?
Yuki: No No, that's not what I mean. It's just that my friend may be worrying about me and I'm not there to tell them I'm ok.
Mad Hatter: Do you wish to see them again.
Yuki: Yes
We don't say anymore but the atmosphere in the room feels gloomy. I look down at the table and see that the tea I was drinking has now gone cold. I know all they are trying to do is protect me, but I don't want this to be how I live my life. I can't keep running away from this. There has to be a way to stop my father and live my life at the same time.
Mad Hatter: Here, you don't belong down here. You are my friend and I don't want to see you sad.
I look back up and see that he is handing me the key to the door.
Yuki: I thought I had to stay here till Eisuke cames.
Mad Hatter: But I can tell that you are unhappy. I also don't think staying here will help you get what you want. You have friends to help you and I don't want to see my friend crying.
I get up from my seat and hug Rhion.
Yuki: Thank you so much. I promise to come and visit you whenever I have time.
Mad Hatter: Thank you for being my friend.
I leave the room and go to the elevator that brought me down here. I just hope whatever is waiting for me up there will not stop me.
