Chapter 33: Ruth Settles In
Eventually, all the excitement in the main room died down and no one had much to say anymore. "So, where am I staying?", asked Ruth. "Oh no, no one planned this did they?", paniced Loretta. "I think we have to wait until Miss B gets out of that bed of hers", said Harry. "Don't get her out of bed, I'll go to her room and speak to her", suggested Ruth. So Ruth climbed the stairs and quietly entered my bedroom, unfortunatly with the squeakiness of the door waking me up as it hadn't been oiled for weeks. "Hey Karla", she came up to me and put a hand on my sheets. "Your guards want to know, where am I staying?". I was still too tired to fully respond but I was able to give the response "room 101". She then proceeded to ask me how I was feeling. "I can't move", I told her, "my muscles really hurt. Convexity has really done me in". And then she sighed and left the room.
"Hey guys, she said something about room 101". All the guards were looking at each other. "Room 101. In the dormitory?", thought Ollie, "If she's someone special and she's living here then she should have a room here in Unit A". Sandy then piped in, "I think Lex and I know about room 101 when Karla showed us at the start. Ruth can come with us". Ruth followed Lex and Sandy outside and as they walked past the secuity centre, she asked them about it. "Oh, that's where Karla processes the people that try to come in, so she's knows they're safe and won't hurt us either", explained Sandy. "Well, there's the dormitory", pointed out Lex. "After you Ruth", said Sandy.
"Sorry but it smells a bit musty in here", thought Ruth. "This place barely gets used because guests haven't come over in ages, that's probably why", suggested Sandy. "Well go on, open the door", said Lex. So Ruth approached the door to room 101, slowly turning the lock and key, waiting to see what was inside. "Nice room", she thought, "Are all the rooms like this?". Lex shook his head, "No, this is the biggest room in the dormitory Karla said. She was saving it all for you". Lex and Sandy then told Ruth that they were going to leave her while she checked out the room but that she could come back to the main part of the fortress at any time if she wanted to see anyone. "Thanks guys", said Ruth as she saw them walk off back through the corridor.
Ruth then shut the door and began to assess her surroundings. The bed she had was a double bed but obviously there was only one person to sleep on it... All the other rooms either had one or two single beds in them as well as a convertible sofa bed. An extra feature that her room had was a full kitchen with every single appliance you could think of. The only downside to her room is that there wasn't really any living space. Only two couches and a television that were very close to the bed and then a dining table that filled the open space. The bathroom was also a tight space because the kitchen had taken up so much of the room and so she almost couldn't fit in there... Oops, I forgot about that when appointing her room 101.
