Elevator (WhatsApp) (Patreon)

It was a few weeks after your brother disappeared, assumed to have caught the shrinking virus, it frustrated you how no one helped looking for him.

You asked all the neighbors if they saw him and no one had any idea…

It was hard to sleep anyway, and your inconsiderate neighbor Jessy kept bringing friends to her apartment and making noises.

Yesterday she sat with her friend, Julie, on the porch, they were smoking and laughing so loud it was like they were in the room with you, you couldn’t take it anymore.

You opened your porch’s glass door and went out.

“Girls, can you please be quiet? Some of us have work tomorrow”, you asked aggressively and they stopped laughing.

“Jeez, what a buzzkill”, Julie said.

“What’s wrong with you? We both have jobs too”, Jessy said, extinguishing the cigarette in the ashtray.

“Sorry, I’m just frustrated because of Jim”, you said in an apologetic tone.

“Who the fuck is Jim?” Julie asked.

“His brother”, Jessy said, kicking her gently.

Julie giggled, then they both started laughing.

“Anyway, sorry, we will go inside”, Jessy smiled at you and they both walked in.

Their reaction was weird, you shrugged and went to sleep.

The next day as you took the elevator down to your car, you shrunk down… helplessly crawled out of your clothes and stood beside them, the door opened at the ground floor but you couldn’t get out, the gap between the door and the floor felt like 5-6 meters wide, you stepped in and decided to wait for help.

The elevator started climbing back to your floor, the door opened and Jessy walked inside, you shrieked and ran to the edge of the elevator, sitting in embryo position.

Julie was a spoiled brat, you knew that if she sees you, especially after yesterday’s scene - it won’t end well.

“Huh? What the fuck…” she said as she pushed your clothes to the side using her foot, she was drinking coffee with one hand and checking her phone with the other.

She sighed as she took another sip from her coffee, “wait a minute..” she mumbled, her gaze looked down and you embraced yourself.

“Fuck fuck fuck…” you chanted in fear, covering yourself with your hands.

“Ha! Who’s this?” She spotted you, then tapped you with her flip flop, you slowly removed your hands and looked at her, she already bent down to take a closer look at you, she narrowed her eyes, then gasped with a big smile and started laughing “oh my god, I’m so fucking lucky”.

“W-Wait, Julie, please, I’m begging you, help me!”

She let her flip flop slide off and then slowly got her foot closer to you.

“No no no!” You started running, she kept hovering with her foot above you, laughing like a maniac, you couldn’t escape the terrible shadow that followed you, then the elevator stopped and she lost balance, *CRACK*.

“Oops”, she giggled with a hand over her mouth.

She started twisting her foot on the floor like extinguishing a cigarette, grinding you to pieces, giggling in joy, then raised her foot up and took a photo of you.
