- 0:00Speaker 1: Bye, Sarah, I have a lovely weekend you too.
- 0:04Speaker 2: Dear our accountant Martha left for the elevator. I packed
- 0:08Speaker 2: my stuff, set my hair with a bunch of bobby pins,
- 0:10Speaker 2: and got up from my chair. It was finally time
- 0:13Speaker 2: to go home. Everyone has left already. I sat at
- 0:17Speaker 2: the bus stop. I always take the last bus home.
- 0:20Speaker 2: It's only been a few weeks since I joined this
- 0:22Speaker 2: new advertising agency. I can't afford to rent a car yet.
- 0:27Speaker 2: Having not much to do, I was checking my phone
- 0:29Speaker 2: when my eyes went to the other side of the
- 0:31Speaker 2: street under the light posts. There stood a man, a
- 0:34Speaker 2: homeless man with disheveled hair and dirty, raggy clothes. He
- 0:38Speaker 2: was watching me. I ignored him and carried on scrolling
- 0:42Speaker 2: on my newsfeed. A few seconds later, I looked up again.
- 0:46Speaker 2: The man was now sitting on the sidewalk in a
- 0:48Speaker 2: crouch's position and smiling at me. He had a big,
- 0:51Speaker 2: creepy smile that gave me goose bumps. That's when I
- 0:56Speaker 2: suddenly felt a hand on my shoulder.
- 0:59Speaker 3: Hey, Sarah, huh.
- 1:00Speaker 2: It was my colleague, Nerdy Larry. Everyone calls him that
- 1:04Speaker 2: because he works with the tech team.
- 1:06Speaker 1: Oh Larry still here?
- 1:08Speaker 4: Yeah, I had some last moments, mailing to do you
- 1:12Speaker 4: all right?
- 1:13Speaker 1: Yes, just waiting for the last bus.
- 1:15Speaker 4: I see Listen, I have my car. I can drop
- 1:19Speaker 4: you home if you want.
- 1:21Speaker 1: That's so kind of you, but I'll wait for the
- 1:23Speaker 1: bus anyway.
- 1:25Speaker 4: Thanks for the gesture, though, you sure, I mean it
- 1:28Speaker 4: won't be any trouble.
- 1:29Speaker 1: I will be fine.
- 1:31Speaker 3: You go home, Larry, Okay, see you Monday.
- 1:34Speaker 1: Then, yeah, good night.
- 1:37Speaker 2: I watched Larry walk towards the parking lot. Honestly, it's
- 1:41Speaker 2: about a half an hour ride to my house, and
- 1:42Speaker 2: the last thing I would want is to bore myself
- 1:44Speaker 2: with nerdy Larry. Also, the bus would be here any minute,
- 1:48Speaker 2: and I didn't like people treating me as a damsel
- 1:50Speaker 2: in distress. My eyes went back to the guy across
- 1:54Speaker 2: the street, and he wasn't there. I searched, but the
- 1:57Speaker 2: man was gone. I let out a big sigh of
- 2:00Speaker 2: relief when suddenly I heard a chuckle close to me.
- 2:08Speaker 2: I slowly turned my head to the right, and there
- 2:11Speaker 2: he was, standing ten feet away from me. His rotten
- 2:15Speaker 2: teeth and greedy eyes formed an evil face. He licked
- 2:19Speaker 2: his lips disgustingly, and then started coming towards me. I
- 2:23Speaker 2: got up, feeling scared. There was no one around except
- 2:26Speaker 2: me and this scary stranger. I started walking too. I
- 2:30Speaker 2: thought if I go away, he would stop following me.
- 2:33Speaker 2: I took a few steps ahead, leaving the bus stand
- 2:35Speaker 2: behind me, and then turned around. He was still following me,
- 2:39Speaker 2: and his smile got even bigger. Now I increased my
- 2:43Speaker 2: pace when I suddenly heard running footsteps behind me. I
- 2:46Speaker 2: looked back and saw the homeles man running to me
- 2:48Speaker 2: at full speed, stretching his filthy hands to grab me.
- 2:52Speaker 2: I lost it and started running for my life.
- 2:55Speaker 3: Help, help somebody.
- 2:57Speaker 2: But there was no one, not a single nearby. That's
- 3:02Speaker 2: what I saw Larry's car pulling out of the parking lot.
- 3:05Speaker 2: Not wasting a single second, I ran to him. He
- 3:08Speaker 2: turned the car around and was heading in my direction.
- 3:10Speaker 2: But before he could pick up speed, I bumped into
- 3:12Speaker 2: his bonnet. He hit the brakes, making the tires screech.
- 3:16Speaker 2: I opened the driver's side door and hopped in his car,
- 3:19Speaker 2: panting heavily.
- 3:21Speaker 1: Please that man. He was trying to.
- 3:25Speaker 3: Hey, hey, calm down, calm down.
- 3:29Speaker 2: Suddenly the man came in front of the car and stopped.
- 3:32Speaker 2: He looked at me with furious anger, like I've robbed
- 3:35Speaker 2: him of the ideal chance of sick pleasure. He then
- 3:39Speaker 2: looked at Larry, cursed him for being there to rescue me,
- 3:42Speaker 2: and disappeared into the dark parking lot.
- 3:45Speaker 3: Looks like he was desperate for you.
- 3:47Speaker 4: You don't say this area is insafe after dark, Sarah,
- 3:52Speaker 4: you should get a car.
- 3:53Speaker 1: I know, if it's not too much trouble, will you
- 3:56Speaker 1: drop me home tonight.
- 3:58Speaker 2: Larry's face lit up in joy.
- 4:00Speaker 3: Of course, it's no trouble at all.
- 4:03Speaker 2: He started the car and I rolled down the window
- 4:05Speaker 2: to get some fresh air.
- 4:07Speaker 3: Still scared.
- 4:08Speaker 1: Huh, I don't know what would have happened if you
- 4:11Speaker 1: left early.
- 4:12Speaker 4: Don't think about it anymore. You're safe now here. Drink
- 4:16Speaker 4: some water.
- 4:17Speaker 2: I chugged the water as if it was my last
- 4:19Speaker 2: day on earth.
- 4:20Speaker 3: Ah.
- 4:22Speaker 1: Thanks, thanks a lot.
- 4:24Speaker 4: You're welcome. Would you like me to turn on the music.
- 4:27Speaker 4: It's going to be a long ride after.
- 4:28Speaker 1: All, Sure music will be good.
- 4:31Speaker 2: The car radio turned on, playing some old seventies song.
- 4:35Speaker 2: I rested my head on the seat. I was determined
- 4:38Speaker 2: that for the next two days I will only eat, sleep,
- 4:40Speaker 2: and drink without getting out of my house. I couldn't
- 4:43Speaker 2: wait to get home. After five minutes, Larry started chatting
- 4:47Speaker 2: about his weekend plans.
- 4:49Speaker 4: I'm gonna buy a dog tomorrow. I was planning for
- 4:52Speaker 4: it for a long time.
- 4:53Speaker 3: You know.
- 4:53Speaker 1: Oh that's great.
- 4:55Speaker 2: He was talking and I was trying my best to
- 4:58Speaker 2: take part in the conversation. But suddenly my vision started
- 5:01Speaker 2: to blur.
- 5:02Speaker 1: Hey, what's happening to me?
- 5:05Speaker 3: Sorry? What do you mean?
- 5:07Speaker 1: My eyes? I can't what was in the water?
- 5:11Speaker 2: I looked at Larry, trying my best to keep my
- 5:13Speaker 2: eyes open. He didn't answer my question, just increase the
- 5:16Speaker 2: volume of the car radio.
- 5:19Speaker 4: So as I was saying, I'm thinking about getting a
- 5:22Speaker 4: pit bull. You know, they're super smart and get highly
- 5:24Speaker 4: motivated by food.
- 5:26Speaker 3: Isn't that cool?
- 5:28Speaker 1: Larry? What did you give me?
- 5:31Speaker 3: Do you like dogs? I'm sure they'll like you. Everyone
- 5:35Speaker 3: likes you. You're so beautiful.
- 5:38Speaker 1: What was in the water? What did what did you?
- 5:43Speaker 2: I fainted. I woke up in a dimly lit basement.
- 5:48Speaker 2: I could barely move my body. It was now evident
- 5:51Speaker 2: that Larry drugged me. A mild, scary growl could be
- 5:55Speaker 2: heard from a close distance, but it was too dark
- 5:57Speaker 2: to see anything. Suddenly the lights turned on. I first
- 6:02Speaker 2: noticed Larry in his pajamas. He was holding a leash
- 6:05Speaker 2: in his hand, which led to the collar of a
- 6:07Speaker 2: giant sized pit pull. The creature took out its huge,
- 6:11Speaker 2: drooling tongue and kept watching me.
- 6:14Speaker 3: Good morning, Sarah, me Andy, he's my new friend.
- 6:19Speaker 2: Larry let out a creepy smile, and his eyes sparkled.
- 6:22Speaker 2: For the first time, I noticed that I've been handcuffed
- 6:25Speaker 2: and tied to a sewage pipe.
- 6:27Speaker 1: Help me, somebody, I'm down here, Please help me.
- 6:32Speaker 4: Ow stop screaming. I've already sound proofed the basement a
- 6:36Speaker 4: week ago.
- 6:37Speaker 2: Tears rolled down my eyes and shot. Larry crouched down
- 6:41Speaker 2: to my level and touched my face with his filthy hand.
- 6:45Speaker 2: He caressed my cheek like a kid treats his new toy.
- 6:49Speaker 3: You're so beautiful, no wonder I went crazy for you.
- 6:53Speaker 1: What is happening? Where am I?
- 6:56Speaker 3: You're in my house. I brought you here after you
- 6:58Speaker 3: got sick last night.
- 7:00Speaker 1: You you drugged me?
- 7:03Speaker 4: Okay, fine, the water I gave you in the car
- 7:06Speaker 4: last night at sleeping pills. But I only did it
- 7:09Speaker 4: so I could bring you here, that's all.
- 7:11Speaker 1: Are you going to rape me?
- 7:13Speaker 2: What?
- 7:13Speaker 3: No? No, I could never think of hurting you.
- 7:17Speaker 2: He started walking back and forth while trying to explain himself.
- 7:21Speaker 4: Look, Sarah, all I want is you to be my girlfriend.
- 7:26Speaker 4: I fell for you since the day you walked into
- 7:28Speaker 4: the office. Remember that red dress you wore. It's only
- 7:32Speaker 4: a shame that that dress got burnt while ironing and
- 7:34Speaker 4: you had to throw it away.
- 7:36Speaker 1: How how do you know that?
- 7:39Speaker 3: Well? I watched you for days with my binoculars.
- 7:43Speaker 4: I followed you home every night after work and watched
- 7:46Speaker 4: you going on with your life from your window. I
- 7:49Speaker 4: saw you eating alone, drinking alone, sleeping alone. That's when
- 7:56Speaker 4: I realized that you're just like me. We both need
- 8:00Speaker 4: each other to complete our lives.
- 8:02Speaker 2: Larry rushed to the other side of the room and
- 8:04Speaker 2: came back with a shoe box. He took out some
- 8:07Speaker 2: polaroid photos. Those were pictures of me snapped on regular days,
- 8:12Speaker 2: me taking the bus from the office, unlocking the door,
- 8:15Speaker 2: and even changing my clothes. Now I got sure, Nerdy,
- 8:19Speaker 2: Larry is a dangerous man. He's been stalking me for
- 8:23Speaker 2: a very long time.
- 8:25Speaker 4: See you turned my world upside down, Sarah. Now I
- 8:30Speaker 4: can only think about you, only you.
- 8:34Speaker 2: He came really close and smelled my face and hair
- 8:37Speaker 2: in a very scary way. I could see the crazy
- 8:40Speaker 2: in his eyes.
- 8:42Speaker 1: Please just let me go. I won't tell anyone, I swear.
- 8:47Speaker 3: Please, Larry, don't don't say that.
- 8:50Speaker 1: Oh, we can pretend this never happened. Just let me go.
- 8:54Speaker 3: Please stop saying that, Sarah.
- 8:57Speaker 1: I'm begging you. Please, I just want to go home.
- 9:01Speaker 2: Shut up.
- 9:02Speaker 3: I'm not letting you go anywhere. Your mind and you
- 9:05Speaker 3: belong with me.
- 9:11Speaker 4: Everything's going to be fine. Once you get to know me.
- 9:14Speaker 4: You'll like it here. Now, who's hungry?
- 9:18Speaker 2: Larry let go of me and grabbed the dog's leash.
- 9:21Speaker 1: Was all of this pre planned?
- 9:24Speaker 2: He turned around to look at me. His face formed
- 9:27Speaker 2: a huge grin.
- 9:28Speaker 3: The homeless man didn't chase you on purpose.
- 9:32Speaker 4: I paid him twenty dollars to scare you enough so
- 9:35Speaker 4: that you'd get inside my car. I didn't want to
- 9:38Speaker 4: force you. You know I honestly care for you, Sarah.
- 9:42Speaker 4: Someday he'll understand. I'll be back with your favorite egg
- 9:46Speaker 4: selot sandwich.
- 9:48Speaker 3: I love you, Sarah mcgluffin.
- 9:51Speaker 2: Larry left with his giant dog and turned the lights off,
- 9:54Speaker 2: leaving me in the dark to suffer. I cried until
- 9:57Speaker 2: my tears dried up. No one it has the slightest
- 10:00Speaker 2: idea that I have been held captive in a crazy
- 10:03Speaker 2: freak's basement. God, how did I end up here? I
- 10:08Speaker 2: was beginning to give up because my hands were cuffed
- 10:11Speaker 2: and without a key, there was no way I could
- 10:13Speaker 2: free myself if I could just have a key. Wait,
- 10:18Speaker 2: a key. I touched my hair. The bobby pins are
- 10:22Speaker 2: still there. I plucked one. It was difficult with tied hands,
- 10:27Speaker 2: but I managed somehow. I said to myself, Okay, you
- 10:32Speaker 2: can do this. I inserted the tip of the pin
- 10:35Speaker 2: into the keyhole of the handcuff. I struggled for a
- 10:38Speaker 2: minute straight, and then I heard the click. The handcuffs
- 10:43Speaker 2: came off. I jumped to my feet. I was finally free.
- 10:47Speaker 2: I wanted to scream, but it wasn't the best time.
- 10:50Speaker 2: I grabbed a spanner from the shelf in the basement.
- 10:53Speaker 2: My heartbeat got faster. Slowly and quietly, I walked up
- 10:57Speaker 2: the stairs. Luckily, the basement door was open. I turned
- 11:01Speaker 2: the doorknob as quietly as possible. I could hear music
- 11:05Speaker 2: coming from the hallway. Nerdy Larry must be cooking in
- 11:09Speaker 2: the kitchen, having the best time of his life. I
- 11:12Speaker 2: peeked from the door, trying to locate the piple. I
- 11:15Speaker 2: couldn't see it anywhere. The narrow hallway stood in front
- 11:19Speaker 2: of me, and at the end stood the main door
- 11:21Speaker 2: of the house. All I need to do now is
- 11:24Speaker 2: run for my life, open that door and scream for help.
- 11:28Speaker 2: I braced myself one, two, three, I started running at
- 11:34Speaker 2: full speed. I ran past the living room and heard
- 11:37Speaker 2: the dog bark once, and then the piple was running
- 11:40Speaker 2: behind me. It was after me, and I feared for
- 11:43Speaker 2: my life. The main door was inches away and I
- 11:46Speaker 2: had no intention to stop. I grabbed the doorknob and
- 11:49Speaker 2: twisted it. The door slightly opened, and I saw this
- 11:53Speaker 2: truck passing by.
- 11:55Speaker 3: Do you think you're going?
- 11:57Speaker 2: Larry lunged from the back, grabbing my mouth and blocking
- 12:00Speaker 2: my screams, pulling me inside the house once again. He
- 12:05Speaker 2: started pulling me back to the basement when I hit
- 12:07Speaker 2: him on the head with a spanner.
- 12:09Speaker 5: Ah witch.
- 12:11Speaker 2: He almost let go of me, but the pit bull
- 12:13Speaker 2: blocked my way. Yes, that damn dog ruined my perfect
- 12:17Speaker 2: plan and started barking like a hound from hell. There
- 12:22Speaker 2: was no way I could tackle that beast on my own,
- 12:24Speaker 2: so I gave up.
- 12:26Speaker 1: Pse just let me go.
- 12:30Speaker 2: Holding his bleeding head, Larry put a knife to my throat.
- 12:34Speaker 5: Keep your voice down or I will slick the throat.
- 12:37Speaker 5: No one will know what happened to your body, Sarah.
- 12:40Speaker 2: My cry died inside my throat. I was brought back
- 12:43Speaker 2: into the basement. Larry didn't know. I unlocked it using
- 12:47Speaker 2: my bobby pin. He thought the handcuff was broken, so
- 12:51Speaker 2: he put on a new set of handcuffs, and for
- 12:53Speaker 2: extra caution, another set on my legs. He then looked
- 12:57Speaker 2: at his pit bull with a highly proud face. He
- 13:00Speaker 2: threw a piece of meat at him, and the dog
- 13:02Speaker 2: chomped on it with great joy.
- 13:06Speaker 4: Didn't I tell you how motivated they are about food.
- 13:09Speaker 3: Now you know he's.
- 13:11Speaker 5: A good dog, A great dog to keep an eye
- 13:14Speaker 5: on you, no doubt.
- 13:20Speaker 1: Cure it.
- 13:21Speaker 3: You hit me hard, Sarah. Why did you do that?
- 13:25Speaker 3: I didn't even touch you.
- 13:27Speaker 1: I hope you burn in hell. Larry. People will find out.
- 13:31Speaker 1: Everyone will start looking for me when I won't arrive
- 13:34Speaker 1: at work, and then they will talk to the cops.
- 13:37Speaker 1: You'll be in big trouble, Larry. I swear you freak.
- 13:42Speaker 5: Oh no, no, no, no, don't worry about that.
- 13:47Speaker 3: You see this, He.
- 13:48Speaker 2: Took out a bunch of keys tied to a Batman keychain.
- 13:51Speaker 2: My stomach dropped. It was my house keys.
- 13:54Speaker 4: I'll quickly drop by your house and nail from your
- 13:58Speaker 4: laptop that you're quitting your job over some family issues,
- 14:03Speaker 4: and that you're going back to your parents' house.
- 14:06Speaker 1: What.
- 14:07Speaker 4: I will also leave a letter for your landlord, whom
- 14:10Speaker 4: you've already paid in advance, so we won't be looking
- 14:13Speaker 4: for you. At least people in the office will mention
- 14:17Speaker 4: you for a week or so, and then everybody will
- 14:20Speaker 4: believe you went home. Whatever happens next, I will dutifully
- 14:25Speaker 4: take care of them. As I said, you belong here.
- 14:30Speaker 4: I will make sure you never leave.
- 14:37Speaker 2: I was numb with fear. This man had thought it
- 14:40Speaker 2: all through. God knows how long he has been planning
- 14:43Speaker 2: to kidnap me.
- 14:45Speaker 4: I better get started, and since you didn't behave you
- 14:49Speaker 4: aren't going to get your sandwich.
- 14:51Speaker 3: I'll be back in an hour or so.
- 14:53Speaker 4: Till then, Andy here will watch you, and trust me,
- 14:57Speaker 4: he won't back down with one hit luff, so better
- 15:02Speaker 4: not piss him off.
- 15:06Speaker 2: He left the dog with me and left the house.
- 15:09Speaker 2: I could hear the fading sound of his car engine.
- 15:12Speaker 2: Is this how my life ends? Rotting in this basement,
- 15:16Speaker 2: enslaved by my stalker for the rest of my life.
- 15:19Speaker 2: The pit bull was sitting in the corner. Its eyes
- 15:22Speaker 2: were on target. I tried to stand up, and the
- 15:25Speaker 2: dog marked my mom's face flashed in front of my eyes.
- 15:29Speaker 2: It was then I realized how ungrateful we are about life.
- 15:33Speaker 2: When we have everything, we hardly appreciate them. And now
- 15:37Speaker 2: that I'm tied to this psycho's house, I fully realized
- 15:40Speaker 2: the worth of being alive, the value of being free,
- 15:44Speaker 2: the freedom of doing as you please. I looked at
- 15:48Speaker 2: the dog one more time. It was looking back at me.
- 15:51Speaker 1: You only care for food, huh, and that's what motivates
- 15:54Speaker 1: you the most. Fine.
- 15:56Speaker 2: I took out one more bobby pin from my hair
- 15:58Speaker 2: and unlocked both hands cuffs. In the next ten minutes,
- 16:02Speaker 2: now I was free to move. But if I did,
- 16:04Speaker 2: I knew the dog would bite me, and he will
- 16:07Speaker 2: for sure. So I did what it took to be free.
- 16:11Speaker 2: I bit my arm. Ah, I took out a chunk
- 16:15Speaker 2: of my own flesh with my very own teeth. Yes,
- 16:18Speaker 2: it hurt, It hurt like a bitch. But I was adamant.
- 16:21Speaker 2: Now this was my last chance. I knew if Larry
- 16:25Speaker 2: comes back, I will be doomed here forever. I took
- 16:28Speaker 2: the final straw. Blood rushed from the vein, but I
- 16:32Speaker 2: ignored the excruciating pain. I grabbed the piece of pink
- 16:36Speaker 2: flesh and called out to the dog.
- 16:38Speaker 1: Hey, hey, Andy wants some meat. Come here, Come on boy.
- 16:45Speaker 2: The dog got up. He probably sensed the air. A
- 16:49Speaker 2: low growl came from his mouth, and then he walked
- 16:51Speaker 2: up to me. I threw the meat at him, and
- 16:54Speaker 2: he licked the meat like a treat. Finally, he wagged
- 16:57Speaker 2: his tail at me, and I knew I had him
- 16:59Speaker 2: on my team. While he ate the rest, I slowly
- 17:02Speaker 2: got up and came out of the basement. Larry wasn't
- 17:05Speaker 2: home yet, and I had the perfect chance. Holding my
- 17:09Speaker 2: bleeding arm, I reached for the main door. I twisted
- 17:12Speaker 2: it open and turned around to take one last look
- 17:14Speaker 2: at the house. The dog didn't follow me this time,
- 17:18Speaker 2: so here I am finally set to escape my stalker.
- 17:22Speaker 2: But what after that? I can call the cops. They'll
- 17:25Speaker 2: arrest Larry and he will be behind bars for some years.
- 17:28Speaker 2: And that's it. The man has given me enough trauma
- 17:31Speaker 2: to sleep with a gun under my pillow for the
- 17:33Speaker 2: rest of my life. I literally chewed my own flesh
- 17:36Speaker 2: and tasted my own blood just to escape him. Staying
- 17:39Speaker 2: behind bars will never be enough for a cycle like him.
- 17:43Speaker 2: I didn't leave. I closed the door and searched the house.
- 17:46Speaker 2: I found a baseball bat under the couch. I ate
- 17:49Speaker 2: the sandwich Larry made for me, and I dressed my
- 17:52Speaker 2: wound using his first aid kit. I fed Andy his
- 17:55Speaker 2: dog food as well, and then I waited. I waited
- 17:59Speaker 2: for him to come back. How did you get up here?
- 18:06Speaker 2: Did you learn to open doors?
- 18:07Speaker 4: Now?
- 18:08Speaker 3: Not him me.
- 18:10Speaker 2: I hit Andy with the baseball bat hard enough to
- 18:12Speaker 2: knock him out. I'm back at work now. I took
- 18:17Speaker 2: Monday off because I had to soundproof my basement and
- 18:19Speaker 2: do a couple duties. I've given Andy to the dog shelter.
- 18:24Speaker 2: I'm not gonna trust a creature that can easily be
- 18:26Speaker 2: manipulated with food. Now I go home, and I don't
- 18:30Speaker 2: feel lonely anymore. I pour myself a glass of wine,
- 18:34Speaker 2: go to the basement and talk to my friend, nerdy Larry.
- 18:38Speaker 2: He can't see me, though, I suppose that's what happens
- 18:41Speaker 2: when you pour acid into someone's eyes. But Larry can
- 18:44Speaker 2: hear me. Well, he can't speak either, as I had
- 18:48Speaker 2: to get rid of his tongue. It's safe that way.
- 18:51Speaker 2: I have emailed the office from his home computer, saying
- 18:54Speaker 2: that he quit his job. He never really existed for
- 18:57Speaker 2: the world, so no one's looking for him. That's a
- 18:59Speaker 2: really He now lives in a cage. I don't like handcuffing.
- 19:05Speaker 2: It's not effective enough. What can I say. I learned
- 19:08Speaker 2: from my stalker's mistakes. I clean after him, I bathe him,
- 19:12Speaker 2: I feed him. No matter how you see it, I
- 19:15Speaker 2: think I am pretty more humane than him. It felt
- 19:18Speaker 2: a little weird to have a human pet, but now
- 19:23Speaker 2: now I'm having the best time of my life.
