Yawning
(That was a nice cup of coffee… break is over, time to go back to work.)
- Hey, buddy… who’s a good boy? Who’s a good boy? You are a good boy! (We gotta take you to the vet, it’s been a while… you also need a bath, stinky… see ya later…)
(Huh? That’s odd, I don’t remember opening the Word… it’s a blank document… hmm… maybe it’s a bug, or I’m going crazy. Anyway, back to work…)
2 hours later
(I gotta go to the toilet…) (Aahhh… sweet relief…) (Huh? Why is he barking?)
Barking
- JAMIE!? SHUSH!
(I better check in on him…) (What are you doing in my office buddy? You know you’re not allowed here… and why are you barking at the comp…)
(What the… it’s the damn Word document again? Is it a vírus? Shit, I better contact the IT department… also, let me cover the camera…)
(Huh? It’s not responding… but it’s not frozen as well, the cursor just keeps blinking… I think I’ll restart it.) (Yep, not working… what if I cut the power supply?)
(Oh, good… let me turn it on again.) (Yep, it seems about right, but I’ll contact the IT guys anyway.)
15 minutes later
(Well, they told me there’s nothing wrong with it… so, let me get back to work, then…)
2 hours later
Doorbell rings
(The doorbell? Who could it be? Huh? There’s no one out there… no packages either.) (Shame… I thought it was my new headset…) (Back to work…)
- Nah, you must be kidding me… no, no, no, the file even has a something written on it now…
“Don’t...”
(What the hell is that supposed to mean?) (I can’t close it, again, those IT guys are fucking worthless, let me call Anna…)
Dials up
- Hey, Anna, it’s me… yeah, I’m good… listen, my computer, I mean, the company’s computer isn’t working properly, there’s something off about it…
(What? “Don’t talk about it.”? okay, that’s freaking me out…)
- Huh? Yep, yeah, still here, sorry, I’m just wondering if you could ask for a replacement for me and if I could use my personal computer for the rest of the day…
- Yeah, I know about the company’s policy, but I can’t work, are you giving me the rest of the day off?
- Yeah, thought so… ok… thanks, see ya later.
Turns off
(Okay, bye-bye you creep… )
(Finally some peace…)
What the fuck? “Well done.”?
(I can’t believe it’s happening on this one as well…) (Let me call Michael…)
Dials up
- Hey, honey… how’s your day going?
- Oh, great, babe, I’m glad for you… listen, are you coming home anytime soon? There’s something off about the computers in here… I’m getting scared.
“I warned you.”
- Honey, please just come home? Thanks… see you soon…
Dog crying
- Jamie?? (Why is he crying?)
- What’s going on buddy? (I better check out on him…) (Huh? It’s locked… what the fuck it’s not supposed to be locked…)
- HEY! IS ANYONE THERE???
(I’ll call Michael again…)
(What, no service?) (I’ll try WhatsApp…) (Why isn’t working, I have the Wi-Fi… No, I don’t??)
(I gotta get out of here… but it’s the second floor, maybe I should wait for Michael…)
Windows slam shut
- AAAHH!! (Oh fuck, what was that?)
Struggles
(I can’t open them, they’re jammed…) (What is this smell? Is it a fire?)
- HELLO!! IS ANYBODY THERE???
“There’s no one there, not anymore.”
- What the fuck did you do?
- JAMIE?? COME HERE! JAMIE, WHERE ARE YOU, BOY??
(Huh? What’s that on the floor? WHAT? Is that… blood coming from outside?) (I’ll look underneath the door…)
- WHAT? NOO!! JAMIEEE???
- YOU SICK FUCK!!!!
- Come on boy, get up, I’m right here… Mommy is coming for you!
- FUCK!! GODDAMN DOOR!!!!
“I told you to not talk about it.”
- FUCK YOU!! See how you like that, ASSHOLE!!!
Computer crashes through the window
The company’s computer turns on
(It’s the damn Word document again… what does it say now?)
“Are we getting violent now?”
(What do you mean now? You fucking killed my dog, psycho)
Lights turn off
Only the white Word screen shines in the darkness
Blood keeps leaking inside
The smell of fire is getting stronger
The closet door creaks as it opens slowly in the darkness
(Oh my god!? What do I do… What do I do?) (Right, what if I answer it?)
Typing noises
“There's no need to get violent, I’m sorry!”
The creaking door stops
“You got me angry, though, now someone has to die.”
Typing noises
“Please, no one has to die, can't you just forgive, me? I just got scared”
Silent typing
"That was the whole point."
- BABE!! - Michael yells as he bangs at the door
- OH MY GOD! BABE, WHAT HAPPENED TO JAMIE?? THE KITCHEN IS ON FIRE, WE GOTTA GET OUT OF HERE!!! - Michael yells
- I CAN’T, THE DOOR IS LOCKED, I CAN’T GET OUT!!
“You must choose, or both of you are dying.”
- I’LL BARGE IN, TAKE A STEP BACK!! - Michael yells
- Babe, it’s to late… I’m sorry, I love you…
The closet’s doors starts slowly creaking again
- WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT, DIANA?? WE GOTTA GET OUT OF HERE!! - Michael yells as he keeps trying to barge in
Diana types, as a tear rolls down through her face
"..."
Silent typing
“Good girl.”
