Everything was blank, nto dark but blank. Like my brain had been wiped clean and my body was floating somewhere else entirely. For a moment I honestly thought I was dreaming. My head felt heavy, like I'd been underwater for too long and only just broke the surface.
I tried to move, but my arms didn't move.
I pulled harder, instinctively, and that was when I felt a rope tied around my wrists. It was burning my sensitive skin.
"What…?" My voice came out small, hoarse, and confused.
I tried again, harder, twisting my wrists, yet the rope didn't budge. My heart started hammering. My breath came too fast. Then I tried opening my eyes—only to realize something soft and thick was tied around my head.
A blindfold? Who did I offended?"
"What—what is this?" I whispered. "What's going on?"
My heartbeat was loud enough to drown everything else. My throat tightened as the panic rose to my chest. I screamed
"HELLO?! SOMEBODY HELP! HELLOOO! ANYONE!"
