Chereads / E.S.C.A.P.E: Underworld / Chapter 11 - Hidden Room

Chapter 11 - Hidden Room

When we about to enter..

We suddenly remembered that we needed a key to open it

"We need a key," Eunice said

"Wait move" I took up my hairpin and put it in the door lock

Just a little twist and viola the door has been opened

"Where did you learn that? Teach me once" She applauded in amazement

When we opened the door Zendaya's beautiful face welcome us

"Hehe hehe Hi Zendaya" Alas, she caught us

"Hi too, what are you doing here? You even followed me" she said while raising her eyebrow

"You said you were just going to pee, does it look like a bathroom?" I also raised an eyebrow at her

"Whatever let's go" surrendering she says

When we hit the fridge door we stopped, Zendaya grabbed the door handle and slowly turned it to open it. When the door opened we were immediately greeted by the cold, we went inside and just left the door open

"It's so dark, I don't see anything" She held my arm so she wouldn't fall

"Wait let me open my phone flashlight" Zendaya took her phone and turned on its flashlight

She pointed the light in front of us we saw was like internal darkness indication that this fridge is big

"Why it is so big? I've seen a commercial fridge before but it's not big like this" I was astonished

"I'm scared, can't we go on?" Eunice has moved behind me

"We are already here so let's move on, wait for us outside give us a signal when you notice someone coming" When Eunice came out Zendaya spoke which caught my attention

"This place is not a commercial fridge, it is a normal room" I look around and I think she's right the walls were made of concrete, if it was a fridge, it should be made in metal or maybe steel, I saw a vent that was still a bit smoky I think that's where the cold comes from

"What is this room for?" I whispered

"Let's find out" We looked at each other

We started walking forward after two minutes of walking we noticed that the road seemed to be getting narrower and narrower but we still keep walking.

A door exposed in front of us, we suddenly heard a scream inside that room, a man's voice that seemed to be struggling. I suddenly felt nervous.

I was about to open the door but Zendaya stopped me

"We better leave now," she said with her serious tone

"What? We need to help him" I was going to argue with her when she spoke again

"Let's ask for help, it's too dangerous what if there is someone who torturing that man? What we will do we don't have anything to protect our self" She has a point

We returned and Eunice met us

"Did you guys see something?" She asked

"We need to ask for help," I said

"Why? What happened?" astonishment and fear could be seen in her eyes

"Go back to our classroom I'll take care of it I will ask for help," Zendaya's said

Eunice pulled me over and I could do nothing but drift with her when I turned to Zendaya she was gone

When we got back to the classroom the two of them were immediately questioned us, it turns out that our professor has already left

"You went around without even taking us," sulking says Alma, but Eunice ignored her

"Hey Seven what did you see inside? Why do you need to ask for help?" Eunice asked for one after another

I told them what we saw and heard inside

"We better ask Zendaya later" I plan that

We finished all our morning subjects but nothing still enters my mind, my brain was occupied by what happened earlier. Zendaya still hasn't come back.

We were about to enter the cafeteria when Zendaya appeared beside us

"I'm hungry" Zendaya pouted, she looks so cute I want to pinch her cheeks

We asked her immediately what had happened in the kitchen

"To be honest I don't know either after I asked for help from the guard they sent me back to our room" She answered while looking in the menu

"Then why didn't come in earlier?" We asked her

"Cutting class," she simple said

I'm about to ask another question but suddenly my phone rang, an unknown number showed on my screen, I press the answer button

"Hello? Who's this?" I asked because the number wasn't save

"Hi, Seven this is me, Lucas. You still remember?" I gave him my phone number earlier because we talked about having lunch together, I forgot.

"Yeah, where are you?"

"I'm on my way"

"Okay I will wait for you just text me if you are already here" I ended the call

"Guys it is okay with you that we have someone else eat with?" I have already promised Lucas, and I am also grateful to him

"With? Your boyfriend? Ayyyiieee" like a salted worm Alma says

"Friend," I said

We were already looking for a vacant table when Lucas arrived, I introduced them to Lucas they easily reconciled him because he likes to joke; our table was filled with laughter and stories.
