Press The Button: Part 9

I pressed the button and the door opened into an anti room . I could feel my top sticking to my back and my damp hair was clammy around the nape of my neck.

Never before have I been so afraid, or alone. I could not longer remember the names of my friends or even that I had been in their company on this strange journey . Everything was so different and alien and I had no inkling of where I was or where I was going, worse still I had no idea who or what I was.

Looking around the room I saw a shower room, why not I thought and so I had a shower. Then I stole some clothes that were hanging up by the door. Usually I would of not dared to do any of this but this was not usual none of this was usual.

By now I had no idea what to do, though I did seem to know that I was on a mission ….. but what was the mission. As these thoughts went through my mind I suddenly heard voices on the other side of the door. The door on the far side of the room opened. I held my breath.

Two young children entered the room, I was worried that me being here would frighten them but they did not seem the least perturbed. They said hello to me and without batting an eyelid asked me to follow them. I was too stunned to say anything and so I just followed them. We went back to the door they had come in by and the taller of the two pressed the button …………. The first one, so far, that I had not pressed!
