I coughed multiple times as I batted away the dust in the air in front of my face with the palm of my hand. This place smelled damp and moldy…and ewwww.

Edward began walking around as if he was searching for something as we ventured deeper into the building into what must have been the lobby of this building. The ceiling was high and had decorative glass panes that let in the light from the outside.
“What are you searching for? Can I help? You know, anything that can make us leave this place faster…” I offered my help in a shaky voice.
“Sorry, hang on for a bit. I haven’t been here for a long time…” Edward apologized softly as he continued whatever it was, he was doing.
