In the heart of a once-lively shopping mall, a simple celebration turned into a nightmarish descent for Molly and her family. It all began with the haunting fall – a plunge from the seventh-floor railing that sent chilling echoes through the corridors, each cry for help ending abruptly with a soft thud. Molly, clutching her pink doll, became the center of a tragedy that cast a sinister shadow over the mall.

Days later, the family prepared a surprise for Molly. Excitement bubbled within her as she eagerly anticipated a new doll. The evening arrived, and the family gathered in the mall's food corner to celebrate. Laughter echoed, and joy filled the air as they enjoyed their time together.

However, beneath the façade of celebration, resentment festered. Molly's aunt questioned the extent of love bestowed upon Molly, highlighting her adopted status. Oblivious to the adult tensions, Molly continued to revel in the joy of her party.

The tragedy repeated itself when Molly's locket fell to the same seventh-floor railing. Ignoring the ominous signs, Molly rushed to retrieve it. The echoes of her fall mirrored a past horror, bringing the celebration to a chilling halt.

As accusations and resentful whispers filled the air, Molly's mother responded with grace, defending her love for Molly, adopted or not. But the shadows of sorrow deepened. Molly's mother, consumed by grief, spiraled into madness, unable to escape the haunting memories within the mall.

The horror unfolded when Molly's mother's health deteriorated to a point of no return. In a disturbing turn of events, she escaped from the hospital and made her way to the mall at night. The once-familiar surroundings became an eerie backdrop as her mother beckoned shadows to follow her. A sweet yet terrifying voice echoed through the empty corridors, calling out for Molly. "Mama, come here. I am alone, mama, ma'am."

In the quiet of the night, as tension thickened, Molly stood once again on the seventh-floor railing. The air grew heavy with anticipation as she reached for her locket. Suddenly, her legs slipped, and the echoing cries for help resumed – "Mamma, papa, mamaaaa, help, help!" The tension climaxed with a chilling thud, as Molly, accompanied by her pink doll, met the same fate as before.

Her father, discovering the chilling scene, intervened just in time. Leading her mother away from the mall, he tried to salvage the remnants of their shattered lives. However, the damage was irreparable. Molly's mother, declared mad, found herself confined to a mental hospital
