Chapter 10
Taz told me his version of the story, about how I acted like I've seen a ghost (in my defense, I did) and asked me if I did manage to find the girl. I told him that I had taken his advice and given up on her.
***
I really wish that I would have taken his advice. And while I did give up on her, she has found some interest in me.
Thanks to me, she has managed to get out of the stairwell. I should have realised that when I saw her at the hospital. At least, I wouldn't have made a fool of myself when I saw her in the hallway (that is one part of the story I’d like to avoid but if you must know then I almost jumped on Taz like a small kid).
She does keep me company though. Even more than Taz. Each day, when I go to Taz's home she'll be walking by my side. She would come home with me. She sits with my family during dinner. She shares her dreams when I sleep. And whenever I wake up in the middle of the night, she'd be there staring at me.
And even will all of that, she calls me every day to walk with her down those stairs. I guess, she's harmless if she's away from the stairwell. Or if I have some other company.
Chapter 11
Despite everything that has happened, me and Taz still use that stairwell. And yes, I have to walk in the middle or otherwise I'll touch her. And she hates that. I could see her frown each time I touch her (by mistake, obviously). And that's because Taz pushes me to the hand-rail.
Will all this pushing, he was definitely asking for it. So she did. She pushed him down the stairs and he has fractured his arm. He will be at home for at least one week.
And that means, that I have to take the stairwell. And, I'll be alone with her. You might argue that I can take the other stairs, but she won't let me. Now that we've bonded well, she is strong enough to take me to those stairs.
I wanted to get to know her and I had my wish granted. And I know what she's going to do to me. I just hope she kills me as soon as we reach her tomb on the stairwell.
