The Light
Unknown
The fruit is ripe for taking
Exhausted both mentally and physically, Elena felt drowsy and soon falls into a deep slumber
When she woke up again her eyes felt heavy and she felt a bit drowsy.
She could see that it was already morning from the little rays of sunlight that were peeking inside the room from the crack under the door
Surprisingly enough, the pain from her wounds didn't hurt as much as they did last night except for an excruciating headache
Maybe she was just overreacting last night because of all her trauma and the wounds were not that serious after all
She was really thankful that she didn't have any hallucinations yesterday as she usually used to have whenever she would be locked up in this room
Well, the head maid must be coming here soon to bring her water since she was the only one who had the key to the dark room
Elena tried to stand up from the ground, but her whole body felt stiff. It seemed as if she had been sitting in that exact position for a long time. But that couldn't be possible since she was asleep the whole time, and she was always known for being a restless sleeper
Elena
Why does my body feel stiff?
Elena
Maybe I slept in one position without moving yesterday
But instead of it being the head maid at the door, the entrance was empty and behind that a warm light was coming
It was so gentle. It almost seemed like it was begging Elena to come in it's comforting shade
Before Elena could further question and digest what the heck was going on right now, her legs which were stiff frozen just a few moments ago began to walk towards the light by themselves
Elena
*drowsily*Mhmm.... it feels warm and comforting. Maybe God finally listened to me
Elena
Maybe I should just stay here
Then abruptly Elena's eyes shut open
She found herself sitting on the floor of the corridor with cleaning tools in her hand
Head maid
Why are you slacking off!?
Elena
Huh- What? What happened?
Head maid
If you don't want the lady to punish you again you better make yourself more useful than that
Elena
Huh? Wasn't I in the punishment room?
Head maid
You were there five days ago and if you don't want to go there again you better do your job better than you are doing right now
The head maid storms off after scolding Elena
