My roommate Chen Ling was always coming up with strange rules. For example, after the dorm power went out, we weren’t allowed to turn on any lights, and once a bag of snacks was opened, it had to be finished within five minutes.
If we didn’t follow them, she would nag us about it all day long.
Just now, at three in the morning, she woke all of us from a dead sleep and said:
“You have to survive. The drill is officially over now.”
With that, she gave us an eerie smile, then turned and walked out the door.
A scream came from downstairs soon after.
She had jumped from the dorm room below ours.
