I sat there in the room, sitting on the couch with the noise coming from the TV. I may have watched it absently from time to time. It was some show with kids in college and it was pretty funny, I don't really know what it was really about but it helped to pass the time.
I was used to sitting in place in the cellar all day with nothing to do but plot my escape so this wasn't that bad of a trade off. At least when I had to use the bathroom I was able to get up and go in there when I wanted to. That was the height of luxury for me all things considered. It was a massive step up from a bucket in the corner.
Plus sitting there in a clean room in clean clothes was like heaven. I didn't want to be a slave or a prisoner to anyone, but at least this place would be a step up until I managed to escape from it.
As I was thinking thoughts like this there was a knock on the door.
