Next day, Sunday morning, the trio escaped from people's eyes and creeped through the backyard gate while the security guard was on walk.
They somehow were successful in opening the old rusty door. Nothing was strange
They just found a whole new world of corridors and classrooms. "Why the hell is this place restricted " Thomas said. "I don't think there's anything wrong here" said Aiden
Jack finds a key fallen down on the floor.
"What are they for ?" jack. "For opening a door"Thomas giggles.
They were all walking deeper and deeper as they hear a sound of a door smashingly closed. Fear enters their hearts.
Jack asks if they should leave. But Aiden wasn't in the mood he was still curious about the thing. They come before a door and try to open it. With all their strength they push it but it doesn't moves an inch as if it was locked from inside, but wait, who was inside?
Now Aiden was a bit scared. They both turn their heads to see if everything's fine but they are not able to see Thomas, where has he gone.
They were now roaming here and there and all the way back to find Thomas if he had lost his way. But they couldn't find him. Jack was now scared more he asks to leave, but Aiden denied to move from the place until they find Thomas.
Suddenly foot steps were heard, they held each other's hand in fear they decided before anyone comes and see them they should escape.
They slowly tiptoed to the gate.
They came out of the building and went to the backyard.
Next day in school when they meet again...
"Where did you go suddenly yesterday we were so tensed we thought some kinda ghost took you to make his friend" jack says and slowly mooves from serious to a lihter mood.
"What ? Yesterday? What are you talking about?
I told you on the call, I couldn't come to school. My uncle wasn't well so we went there.
Jack and Aiden are shocked but neither of them utters a word.
Teacher calls Thomas to the staff room for some academic work.
Aiden whispers " Are you sure he denied you on the call ?".
Yes he denied but I thought that everything's fine so he is with us , I didn't thought this could create a big issue.
Who was with us then? Silence continues.
Thomas comes back but he notices the environment of tension. So he asks " what happen". "Did you both come to the school yesterday ?"
"No actually jack was kidding, he wanted to scare you " he fake smiles.
