I have to write this quickly and hope that someone will believe me! Cuz I didn't do this!
So, there are sometimes these piles of garbage and stuff that people leave outside their house on the side of the road, right? It's right next to where they leave their garbage cans. Everything they leave out there is free for the taking. It's brilliant, a perfect way to get some stuff like furniture or rugs or books that other people don't want.
And everything seemed perfectly normal when we pulled up. There were a bunch of rugs that were rolled up tight. I saw them and thought they would look cute in my new apartment. I didn't have much to furnish the place, so i needed to get some rugs and chairs and stuff. And I figured the rugs would help tie the rooms together. So I stopped and picked them up.
But the rugs were a little heavier than they seemed. I hoisted them in to my back seat one at a time. They were some brutal things to move, but I somehow managed.
Not long after, I got home and had to get them out and drag each one of these rolled up rugs to my apartment. I figured I couldn't do it on my own, so I knocked on the door of my neighbor, We weren't exactly friends but we went to the same school together. I told him my situation and he offered to help me. He had to turn off a game or something but he was right out to help carry the rugs inside.
After what felt like an eternity, we finally got all the rugs inside my apartment. We joked around a bit and I asked if he wanted to see what they looked like, cuz I also had no idea. I unrolled one that had some pink white design on it. As I unrolled it there was something in the middle of the rug. Was that an arm?!
I screamed and stumbled backward. He too looked like he was in shock. He looked at it and back to me in horror. But the curiousity got the worst of us. We knew this was bad, but what about the other rugs?!
We unraveled the next ones and there were different body parts inside. Another leg. Arms. A torso. He and I were horrified by what we saw. There was one last rug. We slowly unrolled it. It was a human head.
My day off from work was supposed to be a day for me to relax and unwind and rest. The past few days had been incredibly stressful, from hateful customers to managers that expected everyone to do their jobs for them, and everything in between. It was nice to finally have that down time to spend away from all that. I'd decided to spend my time, not to get things done around the house, but to play a new game I'd been hooked on lately. It was this puzzle game where every room is seemingly randomly generated, each with clean and clever puzzles. After booting up the game, I was presented a room with white padded tiles all over the walls. There were a few green, red, and blue squares. I guess my job was to manipulate those tiles somehow to get me from where I was no, up to the top of the level. I looked around the room and could barely make out an opening. I pressed a single button to get myself started when the light in my bedroom burnt out, leaving me shrouded in darkness...
