Chapter twelve
They stared at each other, Harpers blue eyes into their deep brown. A wicked grin was upon the employee's face.
As Harper saw their hands ball up into fists, she knew she only had one option. She turned and sprinted along the corridor,until a door loomed. Without thinking, Harper wrenched open the door, slamming it behind her, panting slightly. Staring around, looking at the shelves and shelves of files, a sigh escaped her lips, as it dawned upon her where she was;
"The results room." She breathed.
The room was a dull black, with so little light it may as well have not been lit at all. Harper hastily moved forward, well aware that the employee could burst through the door at any moment. Harper stumbled through the darkness, towards an open drawer, that was labelled,
Test Results.
Her heart soared and she scoured the files for the one she was looking for; the one that bore her name.
The steps were growing louder which could only mean that her pursuer was drawing near. Harper hid behind a shelve right as the door flew open, the employee eyed the open drawer suspiciously and the loose files that had fallen when Harper had stumbled through the dark, before walking carefully past each shelve. When the employee reached the most distant side of the room, Harper took a chance, running from her hiding spot, through the door, file gripped firmly in hand, ignoring the frantic yells as she bolted to the exit.
When she reached the exit, despite all attempts to stop her, cold air barrelled into her front, gasping for air, she continued.
