"Its me Luna!" Said the voice from the other side of the door
All of them sigh in relief, very glad that its not someone else who's knocking, Reena then rush towards the door and lean her ears on it.
"Luna! Thank God you're here!" Reena said gladly as she tries to open the door,and yeah she really forgots that its lock.
"help us get out of here!" Reena shouted while banging the door.
"Luna!" Laura also shouted "Help us get out of here pleaseee!!" she begs
"Okayyy.. wait I'll try" Luna then tried to open it
They felt rigid pushings on the door and saw the doorknob being moved harshly
"I cant.. its totally locked!" shouted luna after trying to open it.
"Oh its locked?" Reena sarcastically said. "Urghh we know that that's locked that's why we need help luna"
"Luna, did you know where the others are??" Fritz ask
"I don't know where they've been" Luna responds. "Maybe I should look for them first so that they can help me let you out of there" she suggested " hang in there for a while ok, I'm just gonna look for them" she added
Footsteps then heard as Luna left to look for the others.
"Wait how did Luna know we're here?" Laura suddenly wonders. She just realized she knocks, then said her name instantly, its like she really knows who's inside.
"Yeah how did she knows we're trapped here?" Fritz added he starts to wonder too.
"Guys! We also need to help Luna, we need to get out of here, the riddles! We still need to answer that" said Reena, changing the topic.
"Okay wait" Fritz says and look at the match.
Suddenly Laura felt a little bit woozy, she stumble a little bit, fritz noticed her and he instantly grabbed both of her arms.
"are you ok?" Fritz asked worriedly.
"I-I don't know, I'm feeling kinda light headed" she responded. "And my body felt heavy all of a sudden"
"haven't you eat already? Or maybe you're just tired? O-or maybe dehydrated? Did we have some water here?" he begun to ask a lot of questions then look around for a water to drink.
"No Fritz Im fine, maybe I got a little exhausted" Laura said as he stops him.
"Maybe you should take a rest, just lay down in there for a bit" Fritz suggested pointing at the carpet.
"Rest? she's taking a rest? We dont have enough time! You know that already right?We need to get out of here! Im also tired but we need to get out of here first, this is totally unfair" Reena bickered.
"come on Reena let her rest, we can answer this clues together right?" Fritz says sweetly to Reena.
He really knows how to get her.
And that makes Reena felt like Fritz just want to have an alone time with her which is absolutely not, he's just worried about her, that's it.
"yeah sure, just rest there girl" Reena says faking a smile at her.
"here's the clue" Fritz said referring to the match. He then read the riddle at the back cover it.
"WHAT ENGLISH WORD HAS 3 CONSECUTIVE DOUBLE LETTER"
Reena's felt a slight of happiness because finally she can talk to Fritz without Laura 'distracting'. She didn't even mind about Fritz Fritz reading the riddle!. Out of nowhere Reena starts to flirt at him but it turned-
"so.. how's your day?" She ask in a very seductive way as possible while looking straight, intently to his eyes
It turned Horrible .
"hows your day today?" Reena repeated
"that's not the answer of the clue righ?" Reena is obviously seducing him but he didn't even care about it obviously too "and my day? you already know its not good, look at us, we got trapped not just once but twice! and this is not the way i expected this day to end" or he's literally just not in a mood.
"Ahh your right. W-why did i still need to ask that right? Haha" Reena akwardly laughs "btw your hair looks good on your shirt" and yeah it got worse, she's just horrible periodt.
"what? what are you saying?" Fritz says confusedly and disgusted at the same time.
"nothing, ugh come on you didn't even notice I'm doing the first move while were still alone now" said Reena desperately.
"what? what do you want? What's first move are you saying? I thought you badly wanna get out?" he's starting to get more annoyed to Reena now.
"Ya know while we're finally alone now and baby girls resting" she looked at Laura referring to her, then back to Fritz "what if we just do the thing" Reena says seducively while going closer to Fritz's back.
"What?!" He exclaimed. He'd never been more confused and disgusted at the same time.
Reena just go closer and closer to him, desperately wanting to kiss him but before that happen, Fritz put his finger on her lips, stopping her for what she really wanted to do
"NO, we still need to get out of here" he said in a calmest way as possible then turn around and starts lighting all the candles. Leaving Reena speechless.
Reena is now trying to think for the answer to that riddle, distracting herself about what just happened while Fritz is lighting all the candles and Laura is resting, laying his back on the carpet.
"Umm guys you should see this" said Laura all of a sudden. Fritz and Reena turned their heads instantly at her. They notices her looking at the ceiling.
"What?"
"Just look at the ceiling"
"Whoa where did come from?!"
In the ceiling there's alot of portraits of people both men and women, age ranges maybe 40s-70s. The portraits looks like from very rich or a Royal family, it was painted on the ceiling.
But there's one portrait that catches their attention the most, it has a title and description on it. The top of it says "THE BOOKKEEPER"
"Bookkeeper bookkeeper bookkeeper... that's it BOOKKEEPER" Fritz shouted.
Bookkeeper? Is that even one of the royal family? It's just weird that this portrait seems like it doesn't belong here. Most of the portraits are royal like, except for this.
"Bookkeeper.... consecutive double letters! Right 2 O 2 K 2 E Right?!" He said proudly.
"Ohhh The Riddle! That's it!" exclaimed reena.
"Okay what do we do next? And whoa how we did not see this portraits in the ceiling earlier? this is kinda creepy does this thing just appears here?!" Reena wonder and she is kind of having this chilling sensation again.
"Maybe I don't know, maybe the description on it is the next one" laura answered, didn't mind about Reena being scared.
