Chapter 17 - WINDOW CLIMBING

"Why did you bring me here?!" I nagged again.

"Aze will you stop? You'll know after 1 year," He mumbled which made my eyes widen in anger.

"You are not!... You are insane! How will I live in this place with... With you!" Said with disgust.

I didn't mean to say it and sounds like I'm disgusted that he's with me right now. But I just want to leave this place because I cannot live here.

Hope he understands that.

His eyes narrowed in me as he pulled a chair beside him and sit down there.

Wow, he got the guts to sit down while I'm still nagging at him. Such a good and idiot man I have ever known in my whole life.

"I'll release you... Only if you will realize why I brought you with me to this kind of empty place." Symon mumbled with conditions.

"That's not fair! How will I know why am I here?! I didn't even know this place!" I complain and tweak my hair out of irritation.

"Please stop hurting yourself, instead find the answer."

After he mumbled those, he left me alone in the... I think this is a living room? Or perhaps a haunted living room, whatever.

"Where are you going?!" I shouted in asked as Symon stops from walking and faced me.

"I'll cook a breakfast for you, I bet you haven't eaten." He answered.

"Oh? A man like you does know how to cook? Is that what you've learned when you're with her?" I teased but to tell you all, I'm trying not to shake my voice.

"Who's her?" He asked.

Oh! The nerve of this guy! He even wants me to say her name right in front of him! Such a bastard!

"Drizzle, your lovely best friend slash girlfriend. Anyways! Cook, it very well I'll just change my clothes... But where are my clothes?" I asked with annoyance.

"I'll call someone to bring clothes for you, go now and clean yourself." He answered as I saw him take out his phone.

I thought he'd call for someone but I'm wrong because he just texted it.

What a day!

How will I get out of here without him noticing me? Should have gotten my purse earlier so I could call someone in the City.

Gosh! This place stinks!

I walk back into the room where I woke up while I was walking in the hallway. I've seen a lot of things that are covered with huge white textiles.

The whole place was covered with white textiles. It seems like this house isn't abandoned but no one leaves anymore.

So it only means something to me now, that if this place isn't abandoned yet. Then maybe there's a person who urges and is obliged to maintain the cleanliness of this mansion.

But then as I could see around, no place smells so good. It all stinks and the floor was full of dust and even the furniture is.

How am I supposed to get out in here knowing that no one could ever help me? It's only me and Symon in this house and I'm so sure he will never let me escape from this place.

I went inside and rushed in the window to think of something. Maybe if I jump in this window no one will know even Symon he won't know I jumped in here.

My eyes watch how tall the window is away from the ground. It's a bit far and if I jumped in there I might have body fractures.

Injuries rather,

I grabbed the beddings including the hem o the curtains even though it smells so stinky I still used it all. This will work if I just trust in myself I will get away from this place.

Symon will cook for about 4 minutes or he might call someone in the city to bring clothes for me here. So I can still have time to escape from this place.

"You can do this, you can do this Aze." I cheered myself and take a slow glance at the window.

Pew!

I opened the window wider and step out my feet in the window slowly. Before grabbing the beddings that I connected to become my escape rope.

My thighs were trembling and my hands were shaking but still, I can do this. I can do this so I won't be able to live in this place for 1 fucking year!

I slowly held the textiles and each hem of it to support safety in myself. It's dangerous but I don't have many options to choose from.

Whether I like it or not I have to do this and risk everything including my whole life. If I fell in here and this thing failed, still I'm lucky because I'll be dead after.

"Oh my god!" I shouted and tried not to speak more words.

My hands were sweating as I reach the other window which made me gasp in fear.

The whole room was covered in all white and I could feel this room is creepy. It felt like this room doesn't have happiness from the very beginning.

Now I'm starting to wonder who owned this house and who lives in that room. After staring at that empty and creepy room. I continued climbing down using the textiles and bedding that I attached to make it a rope.

I glanced at my down and saw that one more window and I'll be on the ground. What I just hope is that I shouldn't have any bruises and injuries as I go down more.

The rope I made is getting smaller and I could still feel how far a bit I was right now. I should have put more curtains so it would have reached the ground.

But I cannot go out in that room and go get some curtains. Symon will suspect me and he will scold me or more like he'll lock me into a room that doesn't have any windows.

And I don't want that to happen, that's why the only thing I need to do is to jump. That's the only way I can think of so I could reach the ground.

The gate isn't that tall but I could see that out of this place would free me. Someone will help me out of here because they'll know I wasn't coming from this place.

"You need to jump now Aze, just breathe! And... Jump!" I shouted as I cheered myself before I let go of holding the hem of the textiles.

"Agh!" I groaned when my feet sprained which made me curse in a whisper.

"Shit! Argh! Fuck this." I groaned and cursed again without any voice.

The air could only feel how much I'm sweating and nervous I was when I jump to the ground.

It's a bit far from the ground but I still needed to jump. Lucky it's just a sprain, it won't kill me though.

"And how's the window climbing?"

"Jesus!"
