All the four screws from the rectangular lock area had co off—like a wig of a young man during sex because his girlfriend tried to hold his hairs for extra grip to give him from behind in a better way—and as soon the screws ca off the tal board fell.
But I caught it in ti, making sure no tal ringing noise roared in the silent prison, alerting the guards. The guards might beco aware, no matter how chill they are, they would surely send their lowest rank colleague to check for the noise and I don’t want that. I am in no condition to fight with soone.
I don’t have any Skills so I don’t even know how to fight. I would be dead just by a glare before the guard could use any weapon. And not to ntion, I have to hide my face as well, if they recognize then it’s all over. Everyone is looking for the hero king. I wanted fa but this is just taking it too extrely.
Anyway, for now, I was lying on the floor, my chest heaving up and down like a fat woman panting after climbing up a floor through the escalators. And the fingers of my right hand were numb as if I did that seven tis a day.
How much ti did it take for to unscrew all four of them anyway?
[ Five hours. You were as slow as most trolled turtle in his hood for his speed. ]
Damn. I agree. That was slow.
But I won anyway, right? I accomplished what I wanted. And that’s what matters.
[ Yeah. Good work. ]
I smiled. The system praised for the first ti and it was the first ti I smiled like this after waking up here.
My lips stayed parted in a smile and Jack hovered behind my head.
He also had a smile and he even clapped for .
Although, he did make gaseous sounds but he didn’t have any bad intentions. So I forgave him.
"That was so great hard work, pal. Your dedication was amazing. I rembered my old days seeing you. I was also this much dedicated to making people love but they always asked , what did you give to drink? Why am I asleep in your bed? I just asked for water. They never loved back."
I don’t bla those people. And that wasn’t even one sided love, it was simply just kidnapping.
Anyway, I nodded.
Jack praised my efforts. He said it was amazing. And I know it was amazing.
My face and hairs were still drenched with my hardwork juice. I didn’t just break a sweat, I landed a spine buster on it and then played hell in a cell with it.
On my left hand was the tal rectangular board, it still had the lock on it but I don’t need it anymore.
I threw it to the side, delicately like a woman’s fake nails and placed my hands behind my head, staring at the ceiling.
Jack floated towards that tal board and I ignored him. He also didn’t disturbed . He must have seen how hard I worked, he is a good and sensible man. He knows when to disturb and when to not. He knows what to say good about and he had yet to say anything bad about m—
"You are one fucking idiot, pal!"
Da fuck?
I sat upright.
That ca out of nowhere like a seed of a man shooting out of the closet while a couple is having sex.
But Jack said that? After I made sure to make him escape from the prison, after I worked so hard for us to escape, he is returning the favor by calling an idiot? No wonder ghosts are portrayed as villains.
"What did you say?" I asked, fuming.
Jack was floating above the tal board and before saying anything, he pointed his finger at the board.
"See for yourself, pal. You were so eager to use your brain that you didn’t use it at all."
I frowned.
I crawled towards the tal board and held it.
I examined it back and front but saw nothing wrong with it.
"I see nothing out of place here." I told Jack.
Jack shook his head. "The only thing that is out of place is the thing that you wanted to be out of place from the start!"
"What the fuck are you talking about?"
"See it for yourself! If I tell you, you would commit suicide!"
I raised my brow.
Jack seed very convinced of his claims. Like a mother asking for custody of her child because she thinks she could handle him just like she handled two boyfriends and one husband at the sa ti.
At the back of the board, I saw the screws were off, there were empty holes instead of those screws. I removed them with my own hands after all.
I then looked at the front of the board.
Everything seems fine here too.
The lock was good, it was heavy, it was rusty, it was irony, if that’s a word related to iron, or the lock could be made of tal.
I touched it and yeah, it was good.
And even after being so many years, this lock still hadn’t budge from the boa—
TLUCK!
My heart sank to the depth of a struggling poet’s empty stomach.
My eyes betrayed the light as if they were casted for Julius Caesar live action play.
My hands turned chilled like I was thrown inside an ice cream cart and t so more children inside it.
My thumb and finger both throbbed like a vein that would make even gay vampires drool.
Jack bent down and ca in front of my face.
He stared at and he even held back his laugh looking at and my hand.
And it seed the system could also see , because just like Jack...
[ You fucking Idiot! ]
He also scread in my head.
And , I kept sitting on the floor like a beggar who didn’t get anything just because his clothes weren’t dirty enough.
I could still feel the pain in my fingers and legs and even before the pain could go away, I t with sothing worse—
The Lock had fcuking co off from the tal board!!
I just gave it a light pull and it was already in my hand.
I thought I was removing the screws, but it was who got screwed instead!
I am at a loss of words.
I am stunned.
"You could have at least checked the lock before going acting like the silent and smart prisoner trying to escape, pal."
I looked at him.
"I thought the lock is old so it would be stuck and won’t open."
"Co on, pal. You shouldn’t have thought that without trying. In life, you just have to insert, no matter how small the entrance is, the insides would expand on their own if you reach deep enough and start moving."
"... You are talking and lock and keys right?"
"Of course. What else? I only talk about the topics at hand."
"Yeah. You better be."
I threw the lock away in the corner and stood up.
"Alright. Whatever happened, happened. There is no point in dwelling over it. So ti would have been saved if I was a little more attentive, but it is what it is. The cell has been opened one way or the other and now, we have to move towards the next phase."
Jack nodded, straightening his posture.
I walked towards the dead body, held his feet and rotated it so that my back faced the entrance of the cell.
And then with Jack the ghost in the front, I began dragging the body.
It was ti to finally reunite with the main cast again.
I am coming, Sexis and Erect.
Though, I don’t know about Erect but Sexis would be the happiest when he sees coming...
Wait. That ca out wrong.
Welp... Fcuk it.
Sexis ca out wrong too.
