Chapter 10

What is your plan of action?

Hide by the couch!

Of course! The only thing in the room providing any form of cover. You gun it to the couch, or at least to where you think you last saw it before you were plunged into darkness, not giving Sia an opportunity to take you by surprise. Well, at least you hope not. Luckily, you manage to find exactly where it is and quickly get a feel of its dimensions. You move over to the back of the couch and squat down, facing away from it. With any luck, Sia won't notice you and you'll get out scot-free.

You start listening intensely, trying to hear any signs of her. You manage to hear a light tapping sound, probably her footsteps running around the room. You can swear that you see a silhouette of something moving past the couch now and again, which makes your heartbeat skyrocket. A cold sweat starts forming on your forehead, as the tapping sound becomes slightly louder and louder. However, it suddenly stops. You try controlling your breathing as best as you can, hoping to make as little noise as possible.

After about a minute long wait, you finally start hearing something once more. Instead of the familiar tapping, you hear a splashing sound. Like water droplets hitting the floor, not too far from you. You try pinpointing the location of the sound, but you just can't place it. Then, a sharp creaking sound blasts through the silence, making you twitch in fear. The creak came from the couch, no doubt about it, which only means one thing... Sia's nearby.

"FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK!" is all that echoes in your mind. If you stay here, she's bound to notice you. However, maybe she'll just pass by and miss you completely. You can hear her shifting her weight around and looking for any signs of you. There's not much time left. Make your decision.

What do you do?
