I feel so anxious. My sight is turning blurry as my heart feels like it's been ripped into pieces. I can’t bear to lose another friend. I do not know what to do anymore and it feels like we are running out of options. At this point, I understand that it is easier to just die but...
I am still hoping that the real world is waiting for us out there.
That we can still get out of here.
And this includes the fact that I don’t want to see us dying although tomorrow is no longer promised for us.
Gosh, I feel so pathetic.
I let out an air as I feel that I am losing all the hope that’s left of me. Steven must have felt like that is why he did that, too.
Harris is running and I try so hard to match his pace. I know that he is so worried about his best friend. And we have to go there. We have to move fast. I try to ignore the sharp pain that is forming on my side as I put my hand on it i

The smell of coffee wakes me up from my slumber. It was lingering inside my room, and as I slowly opens my eyes, the gentle sunlight from my room window greets me with a good morning. Oh, I’m home.I snuggle inside my blankets as I stop myself from crying. I don’t understand why I am suddenly feeling emotional as undecipherable distant memories start to flood my brain. My room definitely just looks like how it was before. It is still full of vibrant pastel-colored things and walled in white. However, I feel like someone died. Or maybe I lost someone so close to me.I sit down on the corner of my bed and run my hands on my hair. I have this feeling that there’s an emptiness within my heart. I hear a plate drop outside my room so I run downstairs in confusion. There, I saw my mom preparing our breakfast in her lovely white apron. I’m stunned. Surprised even. She’s picking up the broken tableware carefully so she will not cut herself. She notices that I am there, looking at her like a m
“Harris!” I call out. I want to hug him. Who would have thought, right? “It worked!” We are finally outside! I am laughing-crying as it seems like all the pain I feel in my body has evaporated. It is a miracle. We are alive! “Where are you?” Struggle to stand up but I am eager to find Harris. I want to celebrate this day with the person who has done this with me. I keep calling out to him but I don’t hear his voice. His silence slowly grows on me. I start to panic. I can hear the distant roar of the cars outside the gates but I can’t hear anything from Harris. The moment that I can see properly I look around in desperation. No... No... I realize that I am alone. “Harris! Where are you!” I shout. “This is not funny!” I walk around the area hoping to find a body lying on the ground. I am hoping that maybe, he is just thrown a bit farther than where I am... but there is none. No... no... no... Harris... I slowly look back at the hotel as Harris’ voice ring in my head shouting Don’t
I immediately open my eyes after I heard the voice and look around. What the hell is happening? I can’t help myself from smiling when I imagine myself opening my eyes inside my room. I miss those plain painted walls and my soft bed. And then I would wake up to my mom baking cookies and the smell of freshly brewed coffee consumed the entire house. I kind of regret not appreciating those little things that I have before we have gone here. However, that smile does not last long when I realize what is happening. It is already bright outside as I feel the warmth of the sun surrounds the entirety of the room. However, the golden walls have drained the life out of my entire body when I notice that we are still inside The Passion House. The water sprinkler system turns on but it is not stopping the fire. There are various explosions that we can hear as the fire quickly spreads around the entire hotel. I hold tighter to Harris when the fire appears in front of us like a snake, devouring ever
He sounds so sincere and I can see through his eyes that he has been so earnest. I can feel that what he says is true. And before I knew it... I am here, eyes closed, and am kissing him in this fucked world.His kisses, as before, are so slow and gentle. It feels like he is taking his time and is just enjoying the moment he is sharing with me. I can’t help but smile as he teases my lips with his. Biting, sucking, and devouring me with unspoken promises that I wish he will fulfill. His right hand is caressing my left cheek. He pulls me closer I gasp for air when feel his left hand on my back, rubbing me softly. I put my arms around his neck as I can feel the arousal rise within me. He pulls away to look at me and his stare leaves me wanting for...“more...” I find myself breathing unconsciously. Completely enchanted by what he is doing to me.I know that this is not the right time to be thinking like this especially when we are trying to do our escape, but I can’t help it. Just like wh
The chef’s blood goes squirting around the floor when Harris cut his life from his neck. His lifeless body then rests on the top of the black bag with a thud. I take a step back as I feel myself shaking, scared of the event that happened in front of me. I look at Harris, his face is dark and his hand that is holding the knife is up in the air. He is shaking, too, and turns to look at me. Seeing my face, it seems like he has been brought back to his senses. He lets go of the knife and it falls down on the floor clanking loudly. He brings his hands in front of him as he stares at it in disbelief. His hands are bloody. His eyes are so lost. He looks at me and I feel scared for Him. “Amy...” He starts as I hear his voice crack, “I-I killed a man.” I have to do something. I go near him and pushed him to the side to let him collect himself. I push down the corpse on the floor and drag it towards the storage room although it is very heavy. I think that this is because of the adrenaline in m
Good thing that Harris is not that far away from me because when I open the door to attack the chef, he immediately drags me back into our hiding spot and keeps me from exposing our safety. After all, we don’t have any weapon with us, unlike the enemy. The well-polished knives are located behind him while he’s facing us. Any attempt to attack him without any proper plan is just suicide. “Amy, what do you think you are doing? Are you trying to expose us up?” he whispers to me as he continues to look outside. I'm still amazed how the chef has not noticed us yet. The chef has not noticed usyet. How? “Are you really going to be the one who’s going to stop me, Harris?! I thought you would understand,” I whisper with gritted teeth but he ignores me as
