"Alice, it's getting late. I'm going to show you to your room and you should start getting ready for bed," Eloisa told me. I quickly took a glance at my watch.
"It's only 6:30," I told her.
"What time did you expect to stay up until?" Eloisa laughed, "your room is the first door on the right."
"Um ok," I said back.

There was a steep staircase that went up to the second floor, I grasped the railing and started up. "First door on the right," I whispered. The brass doorknob was cold and I ran my hand along the keyhole, it could be locked from the outside.

There was a small mattress on a metal bed, a little white bedside table, and a white closet in the corner. The room was very small, and cold.

"Dear, are you decent?" Eloisa asked.
"Yeah, come in," I called.
"I really hope you enjoy our home for the time being," she said.
"Me too!" I smiled.
"Goodnight!" She called from the door.
"Goodnight!" I called back.

She closed the door, I heard the click in the darkness. Suddenly I heard the doorknob shaking... she was locking it. The noise stopped. She walked away. I was trapped.
