Chapter 10: Meeting Sweetness

Sodelle didn't know what to do, she froze and felt nervous, then she could hear footsteps walking towards behind her, she prepares herself and when the unknown person came close, sodelle grips as she reached for the person's wrist and pulls as hard as she can, pins the person by the wall, by her surprise she noticed that it was a girl the same age as her.

A bit frightened yet relieved, "Oh thank goodness! Finally, someone to save me!" she claimed and cries with tears of joy. Sodelle however seemed confused and flustered about it, but she snaps about of it and said, "Okay, I'm sorry to interrupt your moment but... Who are you?" she asked, "My apologies, I'm Reese and I'm the baker here. Or more like a prisoner in this place" she said after she wiped her tears away.

Sodelle was surprised and told Reese, "So a prison baker?... Okay, I don't have time for chats but I am trying to find a way out of this godforsaken place, care to join me, and have me as your acquaintance?" Reese nodded. Sodelle grabs her hand and looks for a way out, but then they hear footsteps coming to the kitchen, so they went to the other room where they can hide for a while, they both sat on the floor and kept their voices down to make sure that they won't be found. "Okay, since you're the first victim to get here in this place... Do you know a way out?"

Sodelle asked, then Reese answered "yes there is, one door that goes in and out, nowhere else, a big man guarding the door, but there is only one problem" she hesitated to say, "And that would be?" sodelle asked nervously, "the shortcut to the door is from this kitchen, but you'll need a key, the only key that the guard had, and I guess that guard doesn't have it..." Sodelle stopped her and grunted "Let me guess, one of those three men have the key", Reese nodded "And I know which one of them has the key, and I promise you won't like this one particular person who has that ket that can get us out of here".

A few minutes later, sodelle checked if the people there are people in the kitchen "coast is clear" they both went out of the room and Reese went to her station at the kitchen and pretends to bake something and before sodelle leaves the kitchen and plans to get the key, "I know you don't this condition, but it is better if you stay here and keep it cool and when they ask you where you were, just tell them that you went the restroom or something. And don't worry, I'll come back for you once I get the key back okay? You'll be fine." she said, Reese somehow feel uneasy, but she trusts her and nodded.

And she went on her way, Sodelle talks to herself while walking in the hallway, "Okay, now all I have to do is to find those three baboons and find that key, going back to those guys is the worst but I have no choice at all, she even said that there is only one way in and out, could it be that... this place is held underground? or maybe somewhere out of nowhere? I hope I find the key quickly and get you off here, I don't like this place at all" she said.

She went back to the room where she ran out, but they are nowhere to be found. She searched for them for hours, when she passes by armed men she hides, she walks carefully and thoroughly that it felt like forever. Until she started to have an episode of headaches and hears ringing noises, she sits and hides by the corner quickly and covers her ears, Sodelle never felt so much pain and vulnerable in her life, the pain then began to fade little by little that she starts to stand back up again, but her legs felt weak, then all of a sudden she started to have flashes of her past, the day that she was in the dark of night, all alone and scared, her breathes became so fast as if she's running out of air, the way she breathes were abnormal, the worst part that her hands started to shake, She couldn't bear the feeling anymore, she felt frustrated and angry she punched the wall so hard that made her knuckles bleed, but then she hears footsteps coming her way.
