how much longer?

I wake up in the middle of the night to discover the power is out. I feel warm yet anxious. "I wonder what's happened?" I get out of my bed to reach for the door. You would think one sleeps in the same room for many years should know her room very well. But no! no! As I try to reach for the door, I feel a pulling in my legs, I can't go anywhere!!........after some struggling, I give up. somehow I don't mind this suffocating force. stressful yet enjoyable....

"Hello? Is anyone out here?"
Where is everybody?
" I am here, can you hear me?" I faint voice comes from the room beside mine.
"yes I can here you."
"hello, I heard some noise, anyone there?" another voice, this one more hopeful.
"let's try to get out of our rooms." we all say.
"NO, NONE OF YOU CAN LEAVE!" the pulling starts to talk, hovering our rooms.
"uh? why?"
"Because I am in misery, you all have to feel my pain."
