Her habbit of eight to fifteen seconds will start. What she needed was not an unfamiliar habbit, they were so many reasons that she could just avoid doing it whenever time can be conceivable. It brought out the worst in her.
She endured to buckle her lips together until she stands in front of her door. She sighed, 'It is only eight seconds, nothing could go wrong.' The only difference from the previous days was : nobody else was watching her. However, today was not the same as the ordinary. Doctor Gmeis and Doctor Frei was on the different viewpoint of her door.
She twisted the lock on the doorknob before it unfolded the three figures that were in front of her. Two of them were smiling, but the extra one was not smatteringly delighted, its chin protrude in the obstinate, self ethical way.
"Tiny Cactus, there is something I have been wanting to ask you." Doctor Gmeis hold her wrist gently, no signs of stopping her on doing what she was expected to do.
Doctor Frei was the one who instantly told her, "Come with us today. Only for today."
No point of staying out for to long, she looked at her other hand that was near the doorknob which she would pulled it back to let the three people vanish from her view.
"Do not go there yet."
She paused to frown at them. "I guess you all think that you can just drag me out and take me somewhere right now? Let me make this clear, 'I-do-not-want-to-go.'" She convinced herself to actually open the door but the part that she has to go out from the residence was a different story.
"I want you to know that we will be suffering if you would not cooperate with us, with Elxidor observing you with no progress at all, she will go against you," The short man managed to catch her eye,
Doctor Gmeis did spared some time to introduced her companion, "I forgot to introduce to you, the one who strangled you on the car when I carried you here for the first time," She looked at the 3.6 footed man with a sharp edge hairy eyebrows. "His name is Ban Muckbuckle. Even if you would not believe my words I must say it simply for you to recognize that he is a deep gnome." Here we go again with the terms, she must be half-awake. How can she really accept this kind of reality when the short man was not a man at all. Muckbuckle has a skillful character by just looking at his hatchet face, close-set glittering black apertures.
It was grinning at her like a rotten fierce gnome. Gnomes has always been spoiled by the witches as what Doctor Gmeis told her.
They are not going to leave, she thought. The doctors have already planned this and they are hopeful that she can not proceed with withstanding them.
"Give me back my egg!" It was a good timing for Xiao Mei Zhi to escape, she turned around seeing the kids chasing each other upwards from the staircase. One has a tiny basket suitable for portable foods, the other was holding a chicken egg.
But when she was about to step inside back to her room, every one froze as the time slowly dealt with its advantage.
"Stop!" Xiao Mei Zhi's heartbeat increased again, her eyes opened wide as she stared at the egg , she was not able to move. That portion was something like a explosion of energy within and can not do anything else aside from witnessing the egg crack on her head, while its yolk gradually slips down to her dry hair and passed through her cheeks.
Ban, the gnome chuckled at the sight of her, "She could at least try to look like she is enjoying herself with the yolks."
Doctor Freis frown was thoughtful, not offending her in any way, as he tried to remove the yolks that she did not want to stay longer in her cheeks and hair. "I guess that this must be a good improvement. You will be dealing more like this from now on," She rolled her eyes. So she must expect more eggs crash landing on her head then? And Doctor Frei realized what he said which precipitated him to elaborate, "I meant communicating with us like this, not the eggs or yolks."
Xiao Mei Zhis lips squirmed at the idea of communicating with them. She could have told them to just stay at their limit since she had been taken herself aside from the crowd after being taken inside these place.
She glanced around. There was no excuse for her now. Even if she pretended her stomach ache, she has period, her head hurts, they already got immune to it. There was no other way to just go with the flow.
"I will come with you but only this time. Give me a few minutes to prepare my self." Her gazed jerked back at Doctor Frei before she slammed the door to their faces.
She rested her back at the door for a second before heading towards the bathroom.
[Inside Xiao Mei Zhi's Shower Area]
Her eyes popped open, as the icy drops from the shower cued her of the rain. Fear trickled to her veins as she saw the laughter from their faces--when she got dirtied with the egg yolk.
The coldness even with a heater on was like a winter flood. Why the heavens made her remember what happened next to that day when the bullies laughed at her. .just why.
Those faces of the bullies were ingrained on her mind. Still, there are memories that she could not recollect. Then a sound of a her bathroom door creaked, her thinking got stimulated. She did lock her main door. So who was there?
Her eyes narrowed as she observed outside her shower glass. She wished she did not care but a shadow jogs quickly, making the hair on her arms stand up. Her gut stirred at the abrupt action.
Then the shower stop sprinkling, she yanked her head up and immediately yearned in keeping it down.
"Help!"
