The Room by John Work
00:00
I was a writer I wrote books I write now
00:06
but nobody knows nobody can see me now
00:12
something strange has happened to me I
00:16
will tell you about it
00:19
in January I wanted to write a very long
00:23
book so I left my home and I found a
00:29
little room this is a good room for a
00:33
writer I thought I’ll write my book here
00:38
it was a little room but I liked it it
00:42
was very quiet I began to work on my
00:46
book and I was happy then things began
00:52
to happen
00:53
strange things one day I was at my desk
00:58
with my pen in my hand suddenly I
01:02
thought I want a coffee
01:05
and I haven’t got any I’ll have to go to
01:08
the shop I put my pen on the table and
01:12
went out when I came back I looked for
01:17
the pen it wasn’t on the table I looked
01:22
on the floor on my chair and then on the
01:27
table again it wasn’t there I don’t
01:32
understand it I thought that night
01:36
another strange thing happened I was in
01:40
bed and the room was very quiet suddenly
01:44
I opened my eyes what was that I
01:49
wondered then I heard a voice a man’s
01:54
voice who’s there I cried there was no
02:01
answer and there was nobody in the room
02:03
I couldn’t understand it and I was
02:08
afraid what can I do I thought
02:12
what was that after that strange things
02:17
happened everyday but I had to finish my
02:20
book so I stayed there the room was very
02:25
small there were not many things in it
02:28
only a bed a table and a chair and there
02:33
was a mirror on the wall it was a very
02:36
old mirror and I liked it and then one
02:41
day I looked in the mirror and I saw him
02:47
the other man it wasn’t me this man had
02:54
a beard but I didn’t I shut my eyes and
02:59
looked again this time I saw my face in
03:03
the mirror
03:05
that didn’t happen I thought I was wrong
03:10
there wasn’t another man I went for a
03:15
walk that day and I didn’t work on my
03:18
book I didn’t want to be in the room I
03:21
didn’t want to see or hear strange
03:24
things at night I went home again the
03:30
room was very quiet I looked in the
03:33
mirror and saw my face but I wasn’t
03:37
happy I went to bed but I couldn’t sleep
03:43
I’ll leave here tomorrow I thought and
03:47
after that I slept but then another
03:53
stray
03:53
thing happened the other man stood by my
03:58
bed and spoke to me you will never leave
04:03
here he said you will stay with me and
04:08
then I opened my eyes I was very cold
04:12
and afraid I’ll leave now I thought I
04:17
can’t stay here for one more minute
04:21
quickly I put my things in a case I
04:25
wanted to go now I couldn’t forget the
04:30
man so I was afraid but afraid of what I
04:35
didn’t know when my clothes were in the
04:39
case I thought I’ll leave the room now I
04:43
looked round the room and I also looked
04:47
in the mirror again and then I suddenly
04:50
felt colder and more afraid I couldn’t
04:55
see the other man in the mirror why
04:59
because he wasn’t there but I couldn’t
05:03
see my face in the mirror there was no
05:07
face why not I tried to shout but no
05:12
sound came I had no voice and then I saw
05:18
him I saw the other man the man with the
05:22
beard but he wasn’t in the mirror he was
05:27
at the table with my pen in his hand he
05:31
wrote my book with my pen I was angry
05:37
and I tried to speak but I couldn’t
05:41
because I had no voice the other man
05:46
didn’t speak he smiled and wrote
05:50
suddenly there was a sound at the door
05:53
and I heard a friend’s voice are you
05:58
there my friend called I want to see you
06:01
I was very happy then my friend will
06:07
help me I thought but I couldn’t move
06:10

06:13
opened it come in he said to my friend
06:17

06:24
the room but he didn’t see me he smiled
06:29
at the other man my friend said oh you

06:38
to speak but I couldn’t my friend
06:42
