袋鼠通訊的部落格

Mike stands inside the dim lit building, waiting for the lift to come. As he waits, he looked around the building: it’s a rather old one, and everything seems to be cover in thin dust. The lift also made a huge noise when it makes it way down the building, but he couldn’t tell which floor it is on now, since the indicating light had gone off. After a while, the door of the lift opens, and Mike walks in without thinking. But he soon finds out he almost steps on something so he quickly back off.

Mike
What is that?

Mike bends down to have a better look. It seems to be some people covered in layers of clothes so Mike can’t tell whether it’s young or old, male or female.

Mike
Are you alright?

Sarah
Don’t speak that loud would you, it gives me a headache. Do you think I’m deaf or something? I can hear you clear enough.

Mike
I’m sorry, I just thought you might need some help here.

Sarah
Yeah, yeah, I could use some help. So what are you standing for, do you think it fun lying on this cold stupid floor? Come and help me up.

Mike reaches out and helps her up. He can smells alcohol from her.

Sarah
Now that’s better.

Mike
You got yourself drunk in the lift? How drunk does it take for you to do so?

Sarah
That’s none of your damn business, I pay my rent here so I can sleep wherever I like. Hit the bottom would you.

Mike
Which floor?

Sarah
3rd.

Mike pushes the button and they stand silently waiting for the lift to arrived the floor. But not for long, the lift stops all the sudden.
