Lets paint a picture,
"Imagine this, you, a person who's had a horrible day, and just want to go to your apartment and sleep, but out of nowhere the world just decided to fuck with your life along with 5 other people by locking you and the other 5 strangers in an elevator."
The situation is tense, a girl, probably in her early 20s, is trying not to cry while holding the hands of a toddler. Even in her stress you can see how well she keeps it in.
On the other corner of the elevator stood two teenagers around the age of 16. They, like what any teenagers would do in this situation, shrugs it off.
Lastly near the elevator door stood a college student, going through finals, and when the elevator broke down, he just lets it all out, tears down his face. Next to him is a man with dark circles around his face, standing there, with no expression from his face, it's as if he's having an out of body experience.
