Roommate

Roommate Hanna The men that came inside were the ones who were with Angelo before. As they came closer, my eyes widened with fear as I saw them drag a body inside the other cell. I slapped my hand over my mouth to contain my gasp and didn't move from where I was sitting. I didn't want them to even notice me. The body was bruised however it was still breathing and pretty much alive. The man they were carrying inside the cell seemed old but not too old, he had blood on his shirt and his face. I shivered when I got a closer look of all that disgusting stuff. My fingers were shaking violently and I wanted to puke even though I didn't eat anything. "Done!" One of the men exclaimed as he thrashed the body inside the cell. The other man kneeled down, laughed at the person and then restrained him with the similar silver shackles that were on me. The man smiled before getting up from the ground and turning around to me. I choked on gasp and leaped back as he looked at me like a hungry monster ready to have its prey. "Calm down, Alex, she's off limits." The other man stopped the evil one from entering my cell. "But look at her, she's asking for it," The man named Alex said while pointing at me. I turned my head away immediately. I wasn't asking for anything and I didn't want to do anything with them. With shallow breaths, I tried to ignore them and my racing heartbeat. "Chill, Alex, I'll get you another girl. This one is way too young and not ours to devour. Leave it to Angelo," The man repeated before dragging Alex out of the room. Once I heard the door slam, I got up and went closer to the door of my cell. I looked at the man who was breathing heavily. "Are you alive?" I asked as I couldn't make out whether he was awake or not. His eyes were shut closed but it was too dark to even see that. There was only one ray of sunshine and that was coming inside my room. His side of the cell was completely dark and mysterious. The man didn't reply, he dropped down on the ground and I gasped when I realized that he probably passed out or died. I walked back and forth, continually checking on him but I was too locked inside, all I could do was wait for someone to come. A scream slipped passed my lips when the man suddenly got up. "Where this f**k is this?" He questioned as he bought his hands forward. He was kidnapped too. These men were kidnappers and they were taking people like me and him. The man was confused as hell, he tried to do everything in his wrath to free himself but he couldn't. Finally, his eyes dashed across the room and landed on me. "Who the f**k are you?" He asked, I winced on his rude tone and back away from the door of my cell. I wasn't going to get anything from this man. It was better to be away! The strange man continued to scream for help, and cursed at the people who bought him here. I turned my back towards him and faced the wall, bringing my knees upto my chest, I held on my self tightly and closed my eyes hoping I'd get some sleep. The man was too loud and didn't have any manners, he even cursed me a few times. After some time, the door was opened and three men walked inside. Two which I had encountered just a few moments ago and then there was Angelo, the worse of them all. I didn't give them much attention and they didn't even glance my way. "Oh, so it's you!" The man held inside the cell screamed at Angelo. The cell door was opened and Angelo walked inside and towards the man who was badly beaten up. "Yes, it's me, Victor. I hope you remember," Angelo said in a wicked tone. I didn't move from my spot because I didn't want to be in trouble but I heard everything. "Let me go! My men will find you and kill you," the old man exclaimed out of anger. Out of nowhere, a bullet ripped through the thin air. I gasped loudly, and placed my hand over my chest. My mouth hung open from what my ears had just heard, I turned out, really slowly and looked at the man who was lying down on the floor with a hole in his head. He was shot. And the gun was on Angelo hand. My breathing quickened and I began to shiver out of fear. "Take the body away," Angelo ordered the other two men and they didn't what he exactly said. They dragged the lifeless body of the poor old man who was just alive a few moments ago. His blood smeared all around the cell and I couldn't see any of it. Angelo glanced at me and I narrowed my eyes down quickly. He stared at me for a few moments and then left the room with the other men. — The very next morning, Bertha came to my cell and got me food again but I was too traumatized to even touch or eat it. She tried to feed me but I couldn't swallow anything. I didn't even eat yesterday's food because of what all that happened. It was very difficult for a girl like me to face all this in real life. I thought mobs, gangsters and murderers were just in movies and not in real life. But I was experiencing it all in front of me. The blood wasn't washed away, it stayed there and the room just smelled worse. "Hanna? You'll have to eat because you haven't eaten since two days, that is unhealthy and master won't like that." Bertha again tried to persuade me but every time she did that, I pushed her hand away and shook my head. "I can't, please take it away and leave me alone!" I whispered. The woman sighed before getting up from the ground, she picked up the tray of food and left the room. "If you feel hungry, call out my name, I'll come." Bertha said before leaving. I wasn't going to eat anything that these murderers were giving me. Who knows that the food I was getting could be someone's limb? They were cruel people, not just the man who shot but also everyone with him and around him, including this woman who just exited from my room. I needed to plan for an escape. I didn't want my body to be dragged like that after someone shoots me for something I have no idea about. The window was way too small to cry or scream for help. No would hear me and it was anyways way too up for me to even reach, even if I stood up on my toes.
