Darkness

She was breathing heavily when she slowly opened her eyes, still a little dizzy.

She was like she had fever and woke from a weird unpleasant dream.

In her hands she could feel a soft blanket which was her mattress.

She could listen that her pulses was raising as she gently raise herself with some effort and sat slowly in her mattress.

Her eyes started to clear from the blur.

The light was very faint like in a twilight night. It was coming from a small lamp hanging from the wall behind her.

She realised that she was in a small room like basement, somewhere.

She felt cold in all her body.

Her limps were stiff and cold.

For her surprise she was still wearing only her grey nigh dress which almost cover her until her knees.

As she stretched her bare feet still fought with her dizziness she felt something cold attached in her left ankle.

Her hands reached instinctively towards her feet.

Then a chilling feeling ran through her back.
