My heart pounds as I reach for the doorknob.He will be here any minute,I think.
I put my hand on it and turn. When I open the door,the room releases a freezing wind.
I shiver as I walk slowly into the room.
I walk to the doors the lead to the outside patio and sigh. There’s no one here. No worries.
I hear footsteps slowly walking toward the room the I just exited out of.
I hide behind the desk the faced to the other side of the room and waited for him to enter.
The foot steps come closer and closer and then into the room Im in.
“Shut up!” he screams.
I hear no voices,but he hears everything.This frightened me.I shifted slowly,producing a small squeak.
He looks in my direction.I gasp.He takes two long strides over to me and smiles.He looks under the desk and finds me,staring at him.
The room is dark besides the light from the door,so I can only see the outline of his face from where I am.
When he pulls me out,I see his face and he sees mine.Then he whispers in his puzzled expression.
“Lizzie?”
