Day 27:
"Riki?"
There was a knock at the door and a voice deeper than I'd been expecting reverberated through it.
I didn't reply. I wasn't sure I knew how to reply. Instead I simply sat there and blinked, unsure of what to do.
"Riki? Answer me Riki." The voice became stern but I knew without a doubt to whom it belonged. However, I still could not manage to form the words I needed in order to obey his command.
"Fine!" I heard the voice snap back at my silence. "You can stay in there!"
Loud footsteps were the last thing I heard before everything finally came crashing down in waves upon me. The utter hopelessness of my situation—everything had finally become too much. I was finally at my end.
I closed my eyes and before I understood what was happening, I felt myself hit the floor. Without the strength to right myself, I let it all happen.
