It feels like I've been stuck in this world for weeks but the sun has never set. I haven't slept yet either. This world doesn't make sense. There is no colour, it's a world of black and white. Horangi and the books are the only colour I can see.

Outside the window I only see a cold grey stone wall. No windows, no rails, all the same stone bricks.

"Horangi?", I say. "Should we try and go back?"

"Ok, I'll wait a little longer till i do."

I think of the face i saw, I'm sure it was Jungkook's, I was thinking of his voice. If I think of Yoongi's voice will i see his face? I want to see the people i mean the most to.

"Taehyung?", an unfamiliar voice asks softly, "It's Jin hyung. We all miss you. Take your time coming back, a.....an.....and", he sounds like he's crying now, "and it's okay to let go, you have been fighting for a long time"

What does he mean? I haven't done much. Did something bad happen to me? Am I dead?

"I'll keep fighting Jin hyung! I want to see your faces too!"

"Horangi." I say in a firm voice. "Let's go. I don't want to be here any longer."

I pick up my small tiger friend and walk to the door. I turn the handle, I didn't lock it since I came back for the first time.

As I step into the hallway I notice it looks the exact same as before. I begin to run down the hall.

"Freedom, Horangi. I know we'll reach it."

The voices begin to swirl in my head. I know they aren't talking to me. I'm almost at the end of the hall when suddenly I hear screaming.

I start to cry and I pull Horangi closer to my chest and hug him tightly.

"What is this? What is happening", I yell out.

As I approach the end of the hall I see it continues in two directions, left is a bright white hallway, right is a dark and scary looking hallway. The voices stop suddenly.

"Thank goodness that the voices stopped", I say to Horangi.

I contemplate on which direction I should take. I eventually decide to take the left hallway. Down this hall there are no windows or doors. The ceiling has bright fluorescent lights. I walk at a slow pace, waves of pain start to hit me.

"Horangi, it hurts, why am I hurting?"

I think about the parts of the book I read, is this what crossing worlds feels like? Was I right about being in another realm? Am I escaping or going deeper into this world? Either way I'm going into the unknown.

I couldn't walk through the pain anylonger. I turn around still holding Horangi tightly. The other hallway looks scarier but I decide to proceed down it anyways.

This hallway looks strangely similar to the long hall outside of my room only much darker. Again there are no windows or doors. I look around at the walls, the cinder brick wall is slowly fading to a smooth soft grey drywall wall. Doors and large windows appear. The floor has changed from stone to clean white tiles, and i suddenly realize that I am no longer in the previous building. I turn around and the dark hallway has disappeared.

A person dressed in a white robe walks towards me. I approach him.

"Excuse me, what is this place?", I ask him.

He walks past me, not even looking at me.

"Hello? Sir where am I?"

He continued to walk not looking back. He entered a room ahead of me. Room 1295.
