Janice is running ten minutes late and still can’t find her keys. She was supposed to meet her fiancé and wedding planner to
discuss the wedding. This is real important to her, Janice has been waiting all
her life for this day and she already messed it up by being late. Five more
minutes pass and she finally finds her keys, she heads out her apartment
running to catch the elevator. She pressed the elevator button about twenty times
trying to get it to open faster. “There is no way I am taking the stairs, I am
on the 50th floor and I am already late,” she mumbled to herself. The
elevator door finally opens and when she walks in she sees Veronica standing in
the corner. Janice couldn't believe this bitch was back, it had been one year
without this hoe and all of a sudden she comes back when she is about to get
married. How convenient Janice thought.
“Well hello to you too Janice,”
Veronica said.
“Don’t talk to me V,” Janice said.
“Why not J, don’t you miss me,” asked
Veronica.
“Do you seriously want an honest
answer?”
“Yes please.”
“Well I was hoping you never came back.
Of course I didn't miss you bitch, No one did!”
Veronica muttered, “Same old Janice I
see.”
Janice was so close to punching
Veronica in her mouth. Who did she think she was? She lost all respect for
Veronica after she tried to ruin her relationship with Chad.
“Oh and someone did miss me… Chad was
the one that called me to come back,” said Veronica. At this point Janice was
going to lose her mind. What was Chad even doing talking to Veronica? They had
both agreed to cut Veronica from our lives after discovering how much of a
snake she was.
They were barely on the 45th floor and Janice had no
patience at this point whatsoever. This day couldn't get any worse thought
Janice. She saw Veronica staring at her from the corner of her eye and all she
could do was roll her eyes.
Now on the 40th floor the
elevator comes to a quick stop and Janice loses her balance and almost bumps
into Veronica. The door isn't opening so they have no idea what is happening.
“Oh my god, please don’t tell me I am
stuck in an elevator with you in here with me,” said Janice.
“Don’t act like that J, I haven’t ever
done anything wrong,” said Veronica.
“Oh really is that what you think,”
asked Janice.
“It’s what I know.”
“Well please explain to me why I always
caught you flirting with Chad, explain how you tried to do whatever to fuck up
our relationship.”
“Well sweetie I never flirted with Chad
first, he was always the one that started it”
“No he didn't, I need you to stop
playing the victim knowing damn well you are the predator!” yelled Janice.
“Why are you getting angry J, I knew
you were always jealous of me but I didn't think it was this bad,” said
Veronica.
“And I’m jealous of what? I have
something you have been trying to take away from me for the longest and that is
Chad, sorry to burst your bubble but he doesn't want you, so do us all a favor
and get over yourself Veronica.”
“Ouch that hurts J.”
“Well I don’t care; I had enough of you
and your shit!”
After that Veronica didn't have
anything else to say.
The elevator is silent for an hour. Janice
tries to distract herself and goes through her purse trying to get her phone. As
soon as she finds it she checks it to see if Chad called.
“Twenty missed calls and fifty unread
messages. Maybe I should try calling him before he thinks the worst,” said
Janice.
She unlocks her phone and tries calling
Chad but the call doesn't go through and her phone is about to die. Great just
her luck thought Janice. Veronica is on her phone too and Janice already knows
who she could be talking to.
“Let me guess… you talking to Chad,”
asked Janice.
“Yes how did you know, he is very
worried about me because I was supposed to meet him a long time ago,” said
Veronica.
“And what the hell were you going to
meet him for,” asked Janice.
“He didn't tell you… I am your wedding
planner.”
“You have got to be kidding me.”
“Nope he called me a day after he
proposed.”
“Hell no… You will not plan my wedding.”
“Why not J… I am one of the most well
known wedding planners in Texas.”
“Well the only thing I ever heard about
you is that you stay taking people’s boyfriends. You’re a psycho bitch.”
“Come on now, stop insulting me.”
“Can’t help but state the truth,” said Janice.
Janice had enough of this; she didn't know
what to do. Why hasn't anyone helped them out yet? They both pressed the
emergency button plenty of times. All she could think about was when she got
out of there she was going to go straight to Chad and smack him in the face.
She was very disappointed in him. He knows how much she can’t stand this girl
and now she was stuck with Veronica in an elevator trying her hardest not to
murder her.
Ten hours go by and they are still
stuck in that elevator. It is getting hotter every second and Veronica is on
the floor sweating like crazy.
“Janice I have a question,” said
Veronica.
“What,” asked Janice.
“Will we ever be friends again?”
“We were never friends from the start…”
said Janice.
“Why not,” asked Veronica.
“Maybe because you have always been a
little bitch that no one could stand.”
“Come on now… am I that bad?”
“Yeah, you can stop talking to me now. It
is too hot for all of this and I already can’t stand you.” Janice starts
playing with her hair and ignores Veronica the best that she can. She notices
that Veronica is starting to breathe very heavy she doesn't even want to ask if
she is okay because she doesn’t care.
Time keeps passing by slowly and Veronica's breathing pattern is getting worse like she is running out of breath.
Janice asks Veronica if she can use for phone but Veronica doesn't answer.
Janice quickly gets up to get the phone from Veronica’s purse. Luckily it still
has fifty percent of battery left. Janice tries to call for help and Chad
answers.
“Chad this is Janice. I have been stuck
in this elevator for about eleven hours. No one has come and helped us. I really
need you to get over here and get someone to open up this elevator for us. We
are stuck on the 40th floor. Oh by the way your friend Veronica
could be dying so I suggest getting here as soon as possible.” Before he has
the chance to say anything Janice quickly hangs up. She starts to worry on how
to keep Veronica alive. She never thought this would happen... but she isn't a
bad person no matter how much she hates someone.
Janice tries fanning Veronica to keep
her cool, it doesn't seem like it is working. Seconds later Veronica stops
breathing. Janice is freaking out at this point. She starts crying for help and
bangs on the elevator door. So many things are going through her mind. What in
the world are people doing that they don’t notice an elevator being stuck for
eleven hours and fifteen minutes. Janice gives up on getting out of there. She just
lays back and closes her eyes.
“Janice!”
“Janice!”
“Janice wake up”
She opens her eyes and it is Chad in
front of her. He picks her up and gets her out of the elevator. Janice starts
looking around for Veronica and doesn't see her anywhere.
“Where is V,” asked Janice.
“She is on her way to the hospital, don’t
worry she is fine,” said Chad.
But how could she be fine thought
Janice. She stopped breathing a long time ago. Was this another one of Veronica’s
tricks? Janice looks at her left hand to see if her engagement ring was there
and it wasn't.
Oh that bitch! I should have killed her
when I had the chance thought Janice.
“Chad I’m not feeling well do you mind
taking me to the hospital,” asked Janice.
“Sure honey, we will head over there
now.”
“Thanks,” says Janice as she kisses Chad on the cheek,
Veronica has no idea what she has
coming for her thought Janice…
