This is my story, my Sleeping Flower!
The Same People

" Heh, just one step away and my plan will work. Ha-ha-ha !! " said an old man smiling.

An old man with his body sitting rigidly in a wheelchair.

" Bye bye fucking life" he said with an evil smile that he carved on his face.

I was surprised and reflexively shut my mouth, I was really surprised to hear the continuation of his words. What does that mean ?

" Because of that incident, I failed to become a powerful person in this city. Because of him I became paralyzed. But it's okay." he said, the corner of his lips he pulled into a smile, looking mocking.

" I'm not gonna let this life get in the way of me getting back what I should have. Power, success, and all that attention. I'll get you back to look. " The old grandfather shouted out all his emotions, those eyeballs showed his angry red veins.

The surprise was getting to hear what he was saying. What we had seen and what we now heard seemed to be one, the puzzle seemed to drift into a tragic storyline. Surely it had a huge impact with Bella relating to him.

His shock caused something to happen...

Srakkk

(friction sound of bella clothing hitting the leaves )

Bella accidentally touches a potted plant near her. To cause a friction sound that must have been heard by someone who was inside.

" Fuck ck! "

Bella muttered to realize her carelessness.

Someone in the room, turned his body towards the door we were in, and walked over to the source of the sound.

" Who's there ? " ask someone inside.

Our hearts beat without our control. Bella and I were accidentally in a dead end facing the right chasm behind us, without moving anywhere.

How not, if we turn around to go to the original place, it won't be possible. And yes it is just a one-way street, a long dark passageway, which takes time to reach.

Of course if we recognize where we are, because we have just moved space time until we arrive here. We are very conscious, we are not in an ordinary place.

' We are in the future '

Bella and I can certainly find out from the architecture of the building and the objects displayed in the previous room. It looks very modern and classic. We as students who are interested in design, especially Bella whose parents are connected in that world, of course, can realize it.

Me and Bella can only hope, that person can't see us behind the door of this room. Our mouths would not stop saying that the man would not find us and be made his guinea pig.

Tap tap tap...

The step became clearer we heard, and stopped right in front of the door.

" Hm ? " he said muttering.

Those eyes were keenly observing the surroundings, not wanting to leave anything small, looking extremely cautious.

" uhmm !! " murmured Bella rebelled.

" diem! hold your breath " said I slowly.

He frowned feeling the movement around him and turned his head there. My chest held my breath for too long. Only a few seconds left for sure I'll die.

" A frog ? " He frowned in wonder, his hand he stretched out and flipped his sleeve, a large needle appeared that he was ready to throw.

Crassh. The frog died with a needle standing upright on its back. A splash of blood on him, he ignored. Subject his body and pull back the needle that stuck there.

My body stiffened stiffly at the sight of it.

' Psychopath '

That's the word that pops up in my mind. After he turned around fiddling with something, his whole body he focused on it. Bella and I are breathing with relief.

" Done, the leak has been dealt with "he said, a line he pulled into a smile.

He moved forward to push a button on a wall and a black hole appeared on the wall. A space-time link portal.

" Portal "our murmur together.

The old grandfather went inside and disappeared behind it, not waiting for long we went to follow him, come in there.

We were again surprised by his presence.

' Mr.X ? '

" What is he doing here? " my words are deep.

" where did grandfather go? " i kept thinking.

The day has begun to rise from the density of the road passed by the public.

After entering the portal we returned to our original place, beside the school. When we arrived, in front of us Mr. X was walking and seemed to want to cross.

" Yes, you feel something strange? "

" mm? what is that ? " i asked confused.

" Look at the tip of the man's finger, at the tip of his finger there was blood" Bella said looking at me, the gaze hinting at the hidden meaning.

" you mean? They are both the same person?! " my words hissed slowly in his ear. My eyes stared into Bella's bead.

" Hm "Bella nodded confidently with her analysis. The man they were talking about was Mr. X.

Shock came back to haunt me, how everything became one. That old grandfather was Mr.X in the past.

TBC.
