There was a long pause. Both of us didn't utter a word.
I broke the silence.
"What's your name?" I asked.
Pause. Guess he didn't hear me.
"Noah?" He said. "You?"
"Kayla." I replied.
Noah. I heard it somewhere. Is he my....
"Noah Williams?" I asked.
Pause.
"How do you-" he started, I didn't let him finish.
"Did you have any dreams? Wooden floors and familiar faces? Silhouettes of a few people? A sign? Anything?" I asked him.
Pause.
"Yes. Wooden floors. A sign. Silhouettes of a few people. 3 are female and 2 are male." he said.
Friends.
"Friends." We both said at the same time.
He mentioned the sign.
"Could you make out anything from the sign?" I asked him.
I feel like that small sign has all the answers for getting out of this place.
"No. I couldn't. When I try to go closer I wake up." He said.
He gets the same thing- as his dreams, just like me.
"Is there any number burned into your flesh?" I asked.
Pause.
No answer.
"Oh my god. Yes. A number 6 is burned into my flesh on my shoulder. Left." he said.
5. 6.
Silhouettes.
I saw 2 females and 3 males, including me....
Where are we? Where are my other friends?
"Did you try opening the door?" I asked him.
"I did. It didn't budge." he said.
Right then, I heard a click. I turned around.
Open door.
