Synopsis
So basically, me and Jason—my best friend who I love but also hate because he gets all the girls—are about to walk into the worst decision of our lives. Jason signed us up for this escape room in extreme mode, and being the asshole he is, he invited Mary (my enemy) and her brother Seth just to mess with me. The timing couldn't be worse because I just met Angelica, this girl who smells like orange river roses and makes my heart do stupid things, and now I gotta focus on surviving instead of texting her. Here's the thing nobody told us: this escape room isn't some fun weekend activity. It's demonic. Like actual demons-watching-us-for-entertainment type shit. The four of us get locked in and quickly realize the puzzles aren't just puzzles—they're life or death. The walls are breathing, the shadows move wrong, and every room we solve just leads us deeper into this nightmare. At first, we're trying to work together. But when you put me, Jason's cocky ass, Mary who already hates me, and Seth who nobody really knows in a room where only some of us might make it out? Yeah, betrayals start happening. Trust breaks down. Jason's charm doesn't work on demons. Mary's rage becomes useful. Seth... Seth knows more than he's letting on. And me? I'm just trying not to die before I can see Angelica again. The demons don't just want us dead—they want a show. They feed off our fear, our backstabbing, our desperation. Every choice we make, someone pays the price. Do we sacrifice one to save three? Do we trust the person we hate most? Can friendship survive when survival means someone has to lose? I went from worrying about getting her number to worrying about keeping my life. And honestly? I'm not sure which one scares me more.

Chapter 1 - My lonely life as its about to fade

Jason, bro I had dream where we were in this escape room(interrupted) 

That's a cool idea, Alex. 

Jason stop interrupting me,(clicked my tongue) who are we going with or this is just some fanservice for obsessive stalkers. 

Aren't you a little bit jealous? 

Not really, why would I wanna be an asshole like you… 

To be honest, it's nice being me… We should switch someday. 

Sure, I don't get hoes but still I wouldn't want to be you. 

Oh really, even if she wants me. 

I don't know what you are talking about. 

Her? That girl in your class who smells like orange river roses. 

Oh please, there's no human being that smells River-river roses.

So if I want,I can go for her?

Nah, she doesn't like talking to boys.

I'm not just any boy, I'm the definition of him. 

I don't like like her, just normal person like. 

Why can't you just admit it?

I'm not, okay… im a very honest person. 

(laughed) we will need other two People to play the extreme mode. So I was thinking about someone you might want to close with - so I chose your enemy Mary and her brother. I forgot his name, (clicked his thumb)I think it was something like seth. 

You are my best friend in the whole world. You know that,I hate you. (he laughed), why them? 

That's the reaction I was looking for,great we have a team, tomorrow 5pm. 

Jason smirked so wide, it gave me the shivers. 

Alex bro,we need sleep early today. We need 8 hours of sleep for tomorrow. 

Jason, shut up, just for one second. 

Two girls passing by 

Hey, ladys 

(in unison) hii.

The name is Jason, what are the names of flowers I'm about to pick? 

Stacy and lolira 

Lol-who? 

Lolira, a lot of people misprounce it, it's okay, 

Damn, Jason is whore I mean he already had two girlfriends, he needs more. this nigga is greedy. 

Seeing how girls treat Jason hurt me so I wander and wonder, is my personality not enough? I'm not that chopped… Still every one around seems to be in relationships besides me, even the weird anime dude in my class.

As I walked through the park, hands tied to another, lips smiling and the other initiating the smile with jokes, as I changed my sight to the left, I saw more strawberries into her mouth, basket in front of them. I walked faster, I felt my heart was aching for a loved one. 

One step lead to another. Next thing I saw was the arcade,my home from home. 

On the way into the arcade. I could see her, her laugh reminds me how I'm not Jason, the wet dreams of every boy. My poor useless confidence was gone, I was shaking. Why? I don't know. 

I thought what if Jason actually talks to her, if that happens. I will kill him. 

I watched her as she played the zombie vr over and over again. 

I thought I can lie, say I love the zombie vr too, maybe that will be conversation starting point. 

Walked up to her 

Hey, can I play next? 

Sure, let me play just two times. Then I will be out of your space. 

By the way we are in the same class. 

I was using this question trick by using statement instead of a question, humans are more likely to correct someone than help them. 

Yeah, we never talked-i thought you are the quiet type so I stayed at my little corner , but it would be nice to chat now and then. 

She said that with a smile that only weaken my knees and heart was beating fast… I-im so in love with her. 

Same,zombie vr is my favourite arcade game.

Then you should try the realistic mode, it's more scary and it has more jumpscares. 

Me, whose bad with horror and gore. I knew I set myself up. 

Can you select it for me? - she did - oh cool, this is so realistic 

*in my brain *

This is so scary, what the hell!

Ohh,those zombies look real, I mean the department of special effects worked their ass off. 

*in my brain *

Please give me a weapon or something 

Ohh fuck no!!,- I removed the vr glass immediately and fell on to the ground. 

She was laughing so hard, she couldn't grasp for air.

So I laughed with her, a technique I learned while in my bullied era, when being made fun of, smile with them. It reduces the damage. 

She reached out, grabbed her hand and said I know right, it's so realistic, it's unbelievable with a little chuckle. 

Yeah, it's too real if you ask me,since I'm traumatised, do you uhm to argh… (interrupted) 

Yeah, sure.

You don't know what I'm talking about 

Whatever it is, I agree… I trust you. 

What's going on here? Why she, whole beauty trust me… Lets not overthink, prove her right. 

I glanced at the dance floor game, she dragged me to play it with her, as our eyes linked during the rounds, she kept wearing her smile every time, I reciprocated but at times I did draw back because what if my teeth are a turn off or ick.

We danced for 10 minutes straight with our body in synced, I felt we belonged together. We never missed a step, I was Micheal Jackson on that thing, she was my rib. 

Beep! Right foot, Beep! Left foot. I screamed we are the best as we were close to breaking the record. 

Boom! Everything went dark. 

Worker screamed don't worry,the generator will be on just right now. 

It's time to go home 

Yeah 

I turned around to get off the game and felt someone's foot and I pivoted and fell again. 

Hey, are you okay? 

Yeah, I'm fine 

Reach out your hand 

She stepped on my chest and I screamed get off, at the time I thought I fumbled hard. 

As she tries to get off quickly, the same fate as me. 

Boom!,lights back on 

She was on top of me, but she stood quickly and smiled. 

Everyone was giving gestures. I'm a lucky man. 

We got out together and before we parted ways. 

Can I get your digi-(mumbled) your name. 

I'm angelica and can you finish your first sentence before changing it to asking for my name. 

Silence filled the air, the calm wind passed through…As I try again to get her numbers. 

Can I have your numbers please 

*in my mind*

I'm idiot, please! Why did I end it with please. God help me. 

Okay, zero seven three double five double two three seven. Im available to speak to at 7 to 10. 

Cool… Chat later 

Aren't you gonna accompany me? 

I thought 

It's a basic rule, when it's late a boy must guard a girl until she's safe, whether they are dating or not. So come on. 

Ahh… see you tomorrow. I ran away, I'm not used to this and I never accompanied a girl before, I don't want to mess this up. 

The street lights were flickering and made me wonder if she had arrived at home. 

So I walked back to the arcade and realised I don't know where she lives.looked at my phone and a hard decision was made to call her,she responded hi.her voice was angelic and sweet, 

I mumbled hey—have you arrived at home… Safely.

No, I need you to save me now!! 

OK, I call the cops, just tell me the location 

Just kidding, I'm fine. I can tell you're athletic by the way you ran(giggled) 

Right now, I'm busy.Talk later. 

Before I could say OK, she already dropped. 

I was skipping and hoping to go home.
