Room 14's
Chapter 1

Diana looked at the old building that stood quite majestic in front of her while tightly holding onto the suitcase she was carrying. The girl was amazed by the design of the dormitory, although it seemed ancient but very magnificent.

Diana put on a smile imagining friends and a new atmosphere that will be obtained later as a new resident, hopefully she feels at home living there.

Diana stepped foot into the building. The atmosphere inside was quite quiet during the day, and it was so felt when he walked down the hallway to his room. Diana could even hear her footsteps echoing in the hallway of the dormitory. There was no sound, only the echo of the sneakers wrapping the feet.

Before coming here, Diana had already stopped at Buana's lab, happened to be the head of the dormitory there and had told the location of her room in detail. The room is located at the very end, the last room on the first floor.

Diana stopped her steps in room 15. Placed his suitcase on the floor then reached into the pocket of jeans that he liked and immediately opened the door of the room. Diana went inside while groping the suitcase with her left hand, while her right hand pushed slowly on the door leaf.

Tight , 'em ,

That's what Diana felt when her feet were just a few steps inside, the dim light from the air vent gave off an uncomfortable feeling, then the girl pressed the light switch, and then,

it's a little better.

The net was circling the square-shaped room, there was a lot of dust as well as spider webs. It seems like it has not been occupied for a long time. After laying out her original suitcase, Diana started cleaning every corner of the room. There is a lot of dust.

Diana tried to shift a large closet located against the wall, of course the power is not strong enough to push the closet.

Because her efforts were not fruitful, Diana gave up shifting the closet, instead Diana cleaned the inside of the closet and arranged her clothes there.

After struggling with the closet, Diana switched to sweeping and mopping the floor, putting new sheets on the single bed.

Diana cleaned the bathroom. The girl was a little choked up to see a very dirty floor, there were a lot of clumped black spots scattered in every corner of the floor.

Huhhhh.. How long has this room been uninhabited? Why is it as if it has not been occupied for years? Not only the floor, the walls were even very dirty.

Unwilling to think any further, Diana began to clean up. When Diana tried to drain the water, the water tap was slightly jammed. After being repaired by the dormitory gardener then the water could flow smoothly.

It was already dark when Diana finished cleaning and rearranging her room.

After the shower, Diana was hungry. He went to the kitchen dormitory to find food that could prop up the stomach.

"Good night, "greet Diana to a woman in her early thirties who Diana guessed was one of the staff of the dorm. The woman was struggling with some cooking ingredients, some even finished.

"Good night, I'm Lorena. The senior chef here" the woman named Lorena introduced herself kindly. He smiled kindly at Diana and then resumed work.

"Oh, Hi, I'm Diana. I was just a few days ago transferred to the buana lab and this afternoon arrived at the dormitory, "Said Diana with a big smile. He was relieved to finally be able to talk to someone.

"What's up Diana? Dinner is still half an hour away.. " Lorena stared at Diana at the glance her hands were busy preparing dinner.

"Can you ask for some food? I haven't eaten since morning, "ringis Diana was a little embarrassed, but had no choice but to ask for food in the kitchen of the dormitory.the place is now far from the settlement and it is not possible to go out now.

"Of course, "reply Lorena then deftly prepared the appetizer Vol au vent neatly arranged on the plate. Appetizer this one is made of soft pastry puff with a choice of sweet or savory taste. With savory stuffing filled with chicken, mushrooms and Madeira sauce. Lorena also gave him a glass of water and orange juice and placed the three on a tray,

"Well, this. Usually the residents of the dormitory just told us to deliver dinner to their respective rooms. It's just appetizers, just like the others in half an hour I'll bring dinner to your room" Lorena explained as she propped the tray.

Diana simply nodded, returning to her room after saying thanks.

"Why is he preparing French food?" diana muttered putting the food on the table.

After eating Diana took a laptop and made some analysis about the microorganisms that will be presented tomorrow in front of Prof. Adams. A professor who has served for more than thirty years. For Diana Prof. Adams was a senior teacher. The man welcomed him very well when he first became a researcher, he provided guidance and also very helpful input.

A year ago Prof. Adams was transferred to the buana lab to become the head of the lab and lead research on the microbiome bacteria that live on frog skin

Since prof. Adams Diana felt a little difficult, he could no longer rely on Prof. Adams for the complicated problems faced. That's why when the central lab announced that the buana lab needed a new researcher, Diana immediately volunteered. It does not matter even having to live on the edge of the city away from the crowd. It's also okay to be away from his family who live in the city center. Because Diana's dream is to become a great researcher and prof. Adams was the bright path that made Diana believe her dream was fast approaching.

No matter how strange the views of others about Prof. Adams, to Diana the middle-aged man was a great kind-hearted person.

There are indeed many rumors in the central lab about prof. Adams. One of them is that many people believe that the genius man is a cannibalist.

Geck... Geck...

Diana stopped her activities hearing a knock on the door of the room.

"Diana, are you inside? " ask Lorena a little loudly from outside the room.

"Yes, for a moment, "Diana closed her laptop, then immediately got up from sitting down to open the door.

Lorena came in carrying a large tray in her hand, 

"Good meal, Diana, "why lorena thrust the tray at Diana.

"Thank you, " Diana accepted it, accidentally touching Lorena's cold hand. Strange.why are his hands so cold? Think Diana. Although the weather here is cold but it will not be that cold.

Lorena pulled her hand, she smiled sweetly and left. Diana still had time to look at Lorena's face before the door closed.

Diana only realized that Lorena had a slightly pale face, she did not want to be prejudiced but what if the woman was not well. Is he sick?

Diana shook her head slowly, she stored the food in a mini-fridge. Her stomach isn't hungry right now.

Diana snatched the black cardigan hanging behind the door, she was still curious about Lorena's state. Is he sick? From what Diana saw the woman was kind and friendly, if she was sick Diana wanted to help.

The hallway of the dormitory is very quiet at night, the lights around the walls are also not so bright.

Shhsttt..... Shhttt...

Diana glanced at room number 14, is there anyone inside? Like something is coming from inside.

Diana put her ears close to the doorknob to hear more clearly.

Sayup-sayup Diana heard the sound of crying, slowly and as if coming from far away. Who cries these nights?

"What are you doing? " Somebody touching Diana's shoulder made the girl jump in shock.....

SERIATE....
