Y/n was sitting on the bed, watching tv but more than that she was lost in her own thoughts, a sudden sound of door bell was heard as she flinched due to the sudden sound and not in less than a second the thoughts of recent incident creeped her out, thinking that it's that someone who has been stalking her she ran to the kitchen before deciding to open the door but with safety to protect herself, y/n picked a sharp knife and hid it behind her back.

Y/n's pov

I was walking normally but with slow steps I moved towards the door and opened it a very little to peek and see who it is but the very next second i was relieved as i saw mom (stepmom) with her luggage with an expressionless face waiting for me to open the door. I immediately opened the fully before firmly holding the knife because if i dropped it infront of mom out of nervousness then I can't predict what will happen next...

I was opening the door as she glanced at me and a question popped up in my mind that she was supposed to come before 1 week ,she noticed my confused look as she sighed "i spent some more days there" this were the words which left her mouth carrying a stern yet cold tone, I  nodded slightly as she entered the house, I immediately went to the kitchen to offer her water totally forgetting that I held a knife, i stopped on my tracks as she called me out with 10× stern tone , I turned slowly with a nervous expression on, "why are you carrying a knife with you?"she asked the question which i was expecting, i made sure to not stutter while speaking

"mom.... actually i was going to cut some vegetables, to make something as i didn't had my lunch, but as you came i hid it, thinking you must get terrified with the presence of that object" gosh what a lame excuse, she gave a small expression which seemed like satisfied yet doubtful.

she said "ok" indicating that she is satisfied but somewhere I knew that she knew that i was lying. I gave an awkward yet nervous smile , holding the knife firmly i walked towards the kitchen and poured water in the glass, i silently held the glass and walked towards the living room , my grip on the glass loosened as i kept in on the huge sized table infront of the sofa on which mom was sitting, gawking at my each and every action. I stood their avoiding mom's gaze. She held the glass , and gulped down the water, few seconds passed.

"I returned back but i will be living with my friend , I don't think it's important to tell you why." She said with a cold look , and i nervously nodded.

Y/n's pov

I was scrolling through the text's with that creepy someone ,i was just too lost thinking that what i thought should I do it. Maybe yes or no , i suddenly heard some footsteps , my thoughts and the situation didn't sit right i got on my feet and opened the door of my room, only to find my mom with a suitcase, i was confused

"Mom, where are you going?" I asked ,  wondering from where I got the courage to spill those words. She turned "You seem to have Alzheimer (brain disease that causes a slow decline in memory) , her sentence made me replay the words she said today to me. I got it , "sorry i got it" i said, but soon the fear of that creep clouded me.

"mom pls don't go" i said nervously as her footsteps halted , she again turned with a frown on her face "umm actually I missed you so pls don't go" this was the truth only but not the actual reason behind me stopping mom ,"have you lost your mind or what" she said , uhhh what else I expected not soon she left closing the door with a thud. I was scared but i don't know from where the courage to face and find about that creep is coming up. I headed towards my room and took my phone only to see various messages from that creep.
