00:00I was a man without a name, or at least not the name they knew me by, Roland T.
00:06Where was the name I gave him when I entered the main hotel?
00:10As for anyone who saw me, I was just another traveler.
00:14There is nothing to doubt, but I was not here by chance.
00:18I had business, but no one could know what it really was.
00:23The room they gave me, Room 1046, I felt suffocated as soon as I entered it.
00:29Darkness was my only ally, so I kept the lights low
00:33and my back always facing the door, waiting.
00:36The phone was ringing a lot, and every time I was talking about exciting tunes.
00:40Dawn, I was saying, not yet.
00:43What was I waiting for? Justice? Revenge?
00:46Maybe both.
00:48My mind was a battlefield, and my thoughts were consumed by fear and despair.
00:51It was supposed that Dawn would fix things,
00:54that he would guarantee that I would get out of this alive.
00:57But as the hours passed, I felt the walls coming closer to me.
01:00Whatever they were, they were coming for me.
01:03The fourth night of January was the end.
01:05He knocked on the door, a sign I knew well.
01:08I twisted my stomach. I answered.
01:10But what followed was not salvation.
01:13A hand held me, strong without mercy.
01:15The blows came fast, sharp, hard.
01:18A cold, precise knife.
01:20They tied me up.
01:22They left me like an animal waiting for death.
01:24But I did not die. Not immediately.
01:26I felt blood gathering under me.
01:28But the pain was far away, as if it did not belong to me.
01:31I remember the thought of the maid who came at a previous time.
01:34How did she not notice anything wrong?
01:37Maybe she will be the one to find me.
01:39I do not remember much after that.
01:41Only the hospital lights, and they are trying to bring me back from the edge of death.
01:44But it was not important.
01:46I had secrets that will vanish with me.
01:49And now I am just a name. A mystery.
01:51No one will ever know the truth about what happened in room 1064.
01:55And this is how it should remain.
