Питер Вайни (Peter Viney)The Locked Room
1 Where am I?
I don't know. I'm in a beautiful room in an old house. There's a bed, an expensive chair, and a beautiful table. I can't see anything from the window, only a green field. The sun is shining on the field. I can hear music, quiet music. It's Mozart.
Why am I here?
I don't know. My head is hurting. I can't open the door, and I can't open the window. I'm wearing grey trousers and a grey shirt. I'm not wearing any shoes. I'm hungry and I'm thirsty. There isn't any food in the room. There isn't a drink either. There's a pen and some paper on the table. There isn't anything on the paper.
Who am I?
I can't remember. I can't remember my name. I can't remember anything. My head hurts a lot. I'm very tired. I'm going to sleep.
It’s morning. I'm on the bed. I'm wearing the grey clothes. I'm very hungry and very thirsty. I can hear music again, it's the Mozart again. My head doesn't hurt now, but I can't remember my name. I can't remember anything. I can hear someone. There's someone outside the room. The door's opening . .
He's in the room. He's wearing black trousers and a black shirt. I don't know him.
Man Hello. How's your head?
Me My head? It's OK. It doesn't hurt now.

Man Are you thirsty?

Man Drink this.
He's got a glass in his hand. I drink from the glass . . .
I'm very tired again. I'm going to sleep .
What time is it?
My head's hurting again. I'm on the bed, and the room is dark. I can't hear music now. I'm going to turn on the light.
Now I can see. There's a glass on the table. I'm thirsty again I'm going to drink from the glass . . . Sleep! I'm going to sl . . .
Man Wake up!
