Little girl [2]

Creaaaak... 

The creaking of the door echoed through the silence as I stepped into the room, the light spilling into my eyes, blinding for a moment as I adjusted.

The bright lights were immediately overpowered by a heavy, suffocating stench.

One that clung to the air... 

A rotting one. 

Immediately, my nose srunched up upon smelling the air. 

'What is this smell?' 

The smell was sickening, and it made me want to leave. 

But those thoughts quickly faded as I looked ahead and saw all the faces turned in my direction. 

"....." 

Everyone. 

Every single person was staring at me. 

My legs nearly locked on the spot upon seeing the sight. 

I clung to the teddy bear in my arms with even more force. 

'Five meters... five meters...' 

I measured the distance between me and the table. It was a little over five meters.
