Hide in the storeroom

Linda turns around and walks to the farest part of the store. “Follow me” - she drops a phrase, and you obediently do, admiring her legs from behind. Hell, how are you thinking about legs even at ****'s face?..

Your (potential) savior opens the white door behind the cash desk, and you see down-leading stairs. Does she want to lock you up in some basement? Not that you mind, but you’d like some prelude before…

But when you go down the stairs, you get into a trivial storeroom...

This storerooms seems to be Linda’s breakroom as well. Besides several boxes with goods, you see a small table with a filter coffee machine and a microwave. Well, you could spend some time here… maybe get a shot of espresso…

You intend to thank Linda, but suddenly a ring on the store’s main door rings, warning you someone enters the store. Oh crap, can it be… them?

Not saying a word, Linda walks up the ladder and shuts the door near the cashier desk, leaving you alone inside.

Having no desire for coffee anymore, you strain your ears…

The sounds are echoing in the staircase, making it harder to recognize anything. But your life depends on it, so you do your best.

You hear someone’s steps in the trading-floor. But the person wears no heels. And that’s bad.

“Can I help you… sir?”

Fuck, you knew it. It's him! You must get out of here!

You look around the room in search of some backdoor, and suddenly see a small window that you overlooked before. But it’s a typical basement hopper window, and you aren’t sure you can get out through it… and make no noise while you do.
