It's dark and cold in here, you can't hear much but muffles from the outside.This room is torture yet no torture has occurred.The door opens as light praises the room."You're lucky….." he says as I sat on this floor, tied up.I don't feel exhausted from physical pain, I feel exhausted naturally.I guess the worse is yet to come, "well….you won't suffer my son but you fee eternal madness." He said as he walked a bit closer.He's only inches away as I'm curled up in a ball, feeling weak."You shall be unchained and freed soon when you feel gods wraith…..but for now feel his mercy." He says as he walks back out of the room and slams it shut.It's back to pure darkness, I don't know why his so called god would allow this to happened.
I think it's been 5 days now, I can't keep track.My mind is focused on any god damn fast food joint I've had.That breakfast from McDonald's, a slice red velvet cake…..Christ White Tower.I've been sleeping mainly to keep my mind off food but now I'm fully awake and are more desperate.I can see the darkness, it's true meaning.This rope is my only source of food at this point.I've been biting at it for the past days and I've swallowed a bit.It's awful at this point, a few more times and I could be free.
You get back to the living room, the same way it was.The man is sitting there, enjoying a glass of orange juice.He stare out the window as he sees a cop car approaching.You can't really miss it, his whole front yard is the desert.The officer parks along side his chevy nova SS and exits out the vehicle, very high and mighty.He looks around at the desert as the Son burns him down, already making him sweat.The man puts his glass down, gets up and exits to greet the officer.The officer is at the doorstep now as the man opens the door."Good afternoon Johnson, you'd like to come in ?" Asks the man.The officer looks at him stubbornly, with his hands on his hips and replies "I don't see you for weeks now and that's how you treat me ?" He says as he barges in without question, he shoved the man as he enters his kitchen.He looks through the fridge as the man now closes the door."Ahh bingo !" Says Officer Johnson as he finds leftover pizza.He gets a plate of the cabinets, puts the four slices left on the plate and puts it in the microwave.As he sets it to a minute and 30 seconds he tells the man "Your daughter, she wants to see you for thanksgiving…." He says to the man's surprise.The man got the glass cup of orange juice and put it in the kitchen sink.He then looks at the officer in excitement."Really, Where and who's coming ? " he says as the man waits along the counter for his pizza. "Her, me and you…here in this house.Hell it was my sisters home to begin with so why not cherish that Memory. " he says as he stares at the man for a brief moment in silence.The awkward silence is broken by the microwave dinging , Johnson joyously gets his pizza out the microwave and starts walking to the living room. "When'd you change the paint in the walls ? " he asks as the man joins him in the living room.Johnson gets the remote control and turns on the Television."Well I changed them last month, me on my own and it wasn't easy." Says the man calmly. "Hmmm, I liked the old color, cherry red…it was my sisters favorite color." He says as he keeps his focus on the tv.It's playing All In The Family, the man looks at him with caution hoping no noise is made upstairs.As it starts to play the closing theme of the show, Johnson is devouring the pizza.The man looks in disgust, Johnson turns off the Tv as he looks at the man as he notices." What ?" He asks to which Johnson Replies as he eats."Well…..hmmm…..well she's gonna probably bring a date…." To which the man responds confused, "a date ?".He says as Johnson has finished up his pizza, he gets up to put the plate in the kitchen sink."Yep….Cmon now she's 20 years old, she can have a boyfriend if she wants." Says Johnson as he enters the living room again.The man gets up, assuming Johnson is going to leave but Johnson starts to walk up to the clown painting."Very beautiful, I remember when she painted it for you as a anniversary gift." Says Johnson with a smile as The man has a cold demeanor.
"Still looks good after so many years…" he says as it gets quiet in Melancholy.
Finally Johnson claps his hands and says "Welp I gotta get going…" he says as he walks through the hallway and into the porch of the home.He is walking down the steps as he makes it to his cop car.He pauses for a moment and turns to the man standing on the porch."Oh I forgot, she wants a cherry pie, I'll bring drinks and uhh what chess sound fine ?" He asks as the man says "sure…..sounds lovely….." he says as Johnson gets in the car and waves goodbye.The man waves farewell as well as he gives a smile.As Johnson is a good distance away, The man gets back in the house and goes upstairs.He quickly goes to check on Baxter.He opens the door as he sees him curled up in a ball.The man looks down on him with a smug smile, "oh my boy, don't feel afraid now…I know you feel hunger but you shall enjoy gluttony soon…..and that day-" he says until Baxter tackles him.It was a trick, any energy Baxter had, he gets up after tumbling the man down.He runs through the hallway as the man gets up quickly."oh no no no….my dear Baxter….why run ?" He says with a sinister look.Baxter makes it to the staircase but clumsily falls.The man walks down the stairs slowly as Baxter has lost his any strength left in him.He's hurt his ribs badly, he breaths rapidly now as The man hovers over him."Oh my sweet Icarus, don't fight the son…." Says the man as he drags Baxter like a dog back upstairs.Baxter is defenseless as he is dragged through the hallway and thrown back into the room.
"Don't shatter my image of you boy, The others I've had fight through this….they were a failure but I know….I know you'll succeeds." He says as he looks at Baxter, Baxter is sobbing as the man slams the door shut.
