LILIANA

I can't believe it, Will is still alive. And if he is alive, where is he then? I don't know why Will was captured in the first place. By this Demogorgon, I hear a knock on the door.

"Lili, wake up!"

It's Steve, I look and Eleven, her eyes are still closed.

"Just wait! I am getting out,"

I said, changing my clothes and getting out of the bedroom. Both my older siblings standing outside my room.

"Lils. Are you okay?"

"You seem angry,"

"Nah, some issues I have to resolve. And, I don't think I can go to school today,"

They look at me, not saying anything.

"Oh, that's fine, Lils. We can go somewhere else right now. Getting in with Nance, some assignments, and then whatever you want we can go,"

Tory said, Steve goes downstairs to prepare his things.

"I think I just want to stay home today. I mean, if that's okay?"

"Okay, but if you need anything. Just call the school, Hawkins High. And then someone will call us up, and we are going to answer you. It's either me or Steve, okay?"

She said and I nodded, Tory kissed my head. And leaves downstairs.

"Bye,"

"Bye, Lils,"

She goes downstairs. I went back to my bedroom and Eleven is there, sitting with the supercomm.

"Excuse me, Eleven. I have to use it. To call friends,"

I said, and she gives me the supercomm,"

"Mike, do you copy? Mike, come on, I know you're there. This is urgent, I'm serious,"

He doesn't answer.

"I'm not gonna stop you until you answer. Mike. Mike!"

Mike doesn't want to answer for sure.

"Mike,"

I repeated calling him 12 times til

"Go away, Lili. You hurt me, and I'm not in the mood, all right? Over,"

"Hold on Mike. I'm not messing around, okay? This is about Will. Over,"

"What about Will? Do you mean about his funeral? Over,"

"No, not his funeral. Screw that!"

"What?"

"Just get over here stat. Bring Lucas and Dustin. Over and out,"
