Where I work is a large rectangular room. It's me and 2 others. The other 2 aren't here at the moment.

I sit at the far end, behind me is a wall and behind that are 5 doors - 3 go to toilets, 1 to a meeting room and 1 to a cupboard. There are 2 ways into this office, the front door which leads outside and to the side of it is a door leading upstairs. Both are in front of me.

So, I'm sitting here, on my own when some lady walks in. I've never seen her before. But she has a work badge on. She says hello and then disappears into the area behind me where the toilets are.

That was 20 minutes ago.

After about 10 minutes I realised I hadn't seen her leave or heard any noises and start wondering if I imagined it or what. So I take a look into the hallway. The office is empty. 2 of the three toilet doors are open, no lights on. The cupboard is the cupboard. No way she's in there. Only place to be is the last door leading to the toilet. But the lights are off so either doing a very peaceful poop or she's not there.

Also the fans are randomly going off.

So weird.

It's like a modern C S Lewis story for adults!

Tbh 20 mins on the loo is not that long for anyone who’s either got digestive issues or is on their phone. I have both and the motion activated lights have gone off on me a few times.

Spooky

Time for a new book!

Tagline "interdimensional lady goes to the loo, or did she?".

“Flushed Away” feels like it plays better into the mystery imo

Maybe she is like one of those people that can't do a poo unless there is significant soundproofing provided by a couple of doors or distance between the toilet and a communal area. Expect this lady has such poo stagefright that she had to breach a whole different reality/universe.
