                                                       ZOEY'S POV
        I stormed out of the house angrily . How could Daryl shout at me like that just because he saw me hugging Andrain . It was  just a way of telling him thankyou but No , that scumbag Daryl , misunderstood everything and barked at me
  
       What nonsense !!!
  
   ********I'm Zoe Anderson and I'm nineteen . I live with my friends ; Kate,  Sofie , Andrain , Lindy and Daryl who's my boyfriend. My parents died living I and my little sister, Emmy to survive on our own but I'm glad my boyfriend and his friend accepted I and my lil sis .
***********

   It was in the middle of the night when I left the house because of Daryl.  I was heading to no where in particular.  I just want to be free right now.

     Having a jealous boyfriend is kind of annoying . You should have seen the way he barked at me just because I hugged his damn friend.  He didn't even let me tell him the reason , he just shouted at me telling me sh*t .
    
    There's no way I'm going to that house till I'm calm . I checked the time in my phone and it was 11:55pm .

     Immediately,  my phone started ringing . I prayed silently hoping its not Daryl cause I won't pick up.  Luckily , it was Sofie calling.

📞 Hey ; I said coldly .

📞Zoe!!! where the hell are you ? She asked screaming .

📞 Somewhere you don't need to know.  I replied. I heard her sigh

📞 Zoe , you need to come home now . It's late for goodness sake.  What if something bad happens to you??

📞 I want to be alone for now.  I said

📞 Tell me where you are right now let me come and get you.

📞 Whatever ... I'm near the city's park close to the abandoned house . You can come if you want . I said rolling my eyes.

📞 Stay right there Zoe.  I'll be there in a jiffy .

📞 Whatever... bye . I said hanging up immediately.

                                  DARYL'S POV
      I rubbed my hair already feeling frustrated . I shouldn't have gotten all pissed off when I saw Zoe hugging Andrain, now we have no idea where she is.

********I'm Daryl Walls and I'm twenty. I'm a billionaire and only child of my parents.  Presently,  I'm here in Seoul with some friends and of course my girlfriend.  I need a break from Newyork which is my home town.
********

  " I know where she is " . Sofie said running towards me.

  " You know ??? Please tell me ". I replied almost immediately.

  " She's near the city park close to the abandoned house ". She replied.

  Thank goodness she's safe.

   "Lets go get get now ! " I said running to get my car keys.

    " I'll come with you " . Kate and Sofie said together.

     " I don't care if you come or not but since you guys are coming with me, hurry up " . I said rushing out .

                                 ZOEY'S POV
       I walked back and forth waiting for Sofie to arrive.

Wait ... Why do I want to go home ?
  
   I'm not going back home yet . I don't want to see anybody.

   " What about your lil sis? " My inner mind asked.

   " Oh yeah . She'll be worried by now ". I said to myself.

     I walked to and fro and stopped immediately I heard a sound coming from the abandoned house. I stared at it for a second and was about to open it when I pulled myself back.

     I heard another sound from inside again and this time , I decided to check it out. I was about pulling the door knob but I stopped myself again. I stared at the door for some minutes and was about turning back when I heard a little girl's voice crying for help.

     " What will a little girl be doing in here by this time of the night?  " I asked myself . I walked closer to the door and pulled it.

    I entered inside and stopped by the door.  It was dark in there so I switched on my phone torch.

     " Is anybody in here !!! " I shouted pointing the light everywhere in the house . It smells awful.

     " Is anybody there " I yelled again but got no answer. I turned again to leave but I immediately heard the little girl's scream again.  I turned back and continued walking in pointing my torch around .

    I need to find this girl and leave but Gosh ...this place smells real bad.

    " Are you in there little girl  ? " I asked with no answer.  I stood still and pointed my torch around . Just then , I saw the little girl's shadow on the wall standing beside me . I pointed the torch beside me but saw no one there.  I pointed it back to the wall and still saw the little girl's shadow on the wall but this time , she was holding a knife . I looked around me but saw no one there. 

  I was about to run away when I slipped and fell flat on the floor . My phone fell on the floor which made the light go off. I stretched my hand trying to touch my phone when my hand touched a feet .

     "Who's there ?? get away from me " . I said moving backward . The sound of footsteps became closer and I kept moving backward.
 
       " Get back !!! " I screamed.
  
  Everywhere was dark and I could see nothing.  I could only here the footsteps coming closer.
     
    "  Get away from me.
        Somebody help me !!!" I yelled as tears rolled down my cheeks .
    
   "  Help me please !!! " I yelled again still moving backward till I got to the end of the wall . I looked left and right and I saw the little girl's shadow with the knife .
  
        " Please don't kill me " I said in tears and immediately,  the little girl stabbed me in the chest.
