Chapter 6

No answer.

Tim reached for the doorknob expecting it to be locked but the door swung open casting a shadow on a long hallway. Tim took glanced around the room, the light from the door revealed a set of stair to the left and a dark hallway in front of him.
He took one step into the room then stopped himself. “I need to leave, I have to go to this meeting” he muttered but, unable to stop himself, he took another step into the room. “HELLO!” Tim yelled, the words echoed down the long hallway.

No answer.

Walking into the house, he fumbled for the light switch, somehow knowing where it was, and a dim light flickered on lighting the shadows. Noticing a door just to his right he opened it and walked in,
Getting an eerie feel from the room, Tim turned around to leave when something caught his eye. It was a photo. Tim knew this photo. He picked it up and took a closer look. There were three boys in the photograph, all standing next to each other in what looked to be medical robes. One boys face he was sure he had never seen before but another face seemed to flip a switch in Tim’s brain, causing his blood to boil and setting off a chain reaction that caused some memories Tim had hoped would stay repressed to begin to surface. As Tim finally recognized the final boy a voice came from the doorway.
“we were so cute back then….”

  1. You might need to go through and do some editting, Donut (or, if you'd rather, I could do it for you), but it was very good. I like the way it's going.
