Sequel to Pedestrian


Where am I? I sat there quietly as people helped me and brought me to a room covered in all white. I am not crazy! Why cant people just go outside and walk around, I don’t understand? Nothing made sense, I am just a normal guy who doesn’t have a wife and likes to take peaceful walks in nature. Why do we all have to stay inside and watch T.V? I had to get out of this place fast before I really did go crazy. As I walked to room #432, the assistant asked if I needed water of some paper and pencils to draw. I shook my head, and shut the door as fast as I could. My room was painted all white and all it had was a bed and a table. How was I suppose to get out of here, there are no windows? I sat an the old, creaky bed and thought about how I could escape. After sitting for about ten minutes I decided I would go to the bathroom and get out from there. I opened the heavy door and slowly crept out in the hall. Watching my every step so no one would catch me, I could see the door. I had nothing else to but run, I counted to three in my head and took off. People were yelling at me left and right, “Leonard, get back here! LEONARD!” I couldn’t listen I just kept going. I was out at last I ran all the way to my house, shut the door, locked it, and locked all the windows. My nightly walks might have to change to forest walks, and I will have to be careful what I do, but the last thing I will do is become like everyone else.
