YESTERDAYA girl, probably nineteen, wearing a hoodie, having short hair and green eyes got up from her couch as she heard the telephone ring. She picked it up, confused and annoyed.
"Hello?" she asked, curious who that was. "Hello Samantha. How are you?"
"Who is this!" Samantha asked, getting more annoyed by the second.
"Unimportant to you now. Important when I'll rip your heart out." The voice spoke. It sounded like a male voice as Samantha could tell.
Samantha stared at the phone, in shock. "Who's this?" Samantha asked, trying to figure it out again who was calling her. She looked at the contact, confused and stressed.
"Someone." The voice responded."Listen, just tell me who you are, motherf-" Samantha started, the voice spoke agains, this time more aggressive this time: "no, you listen to me, you little bitch, you will know who I am when I kill you, you will recognise me again, staring at me in shock. I swear, I'm gonna finish you, but slow. I will kill you so slowly that you fall on your knee and beg."
Samantha hang up, not knowing wha to do. She stared at the phone for a moment before she made sure her doors were locked. She had a strange feeling in her stomach that something bad would happen.
Samantha sat on the couch, blanket wrapped over her, phone in her hand. She dials 991."Hello, how can I help you?" A sweet female voice asked her.
"I'm not sure if this is an emergency, but I think I need help, I-" she stopped.
"Hello?" The female voice asked again, but Samantha couldn't answer anymore. She was dead.The killer came up from behind and stabbed her ten times, ripping her heart out.
Then the person ran away,"Hello?" The female voice asked again.

Jules stared at her ceiling, trying to remind herself that today was a good day.
"Today is a good day. I am happy. I love me." Jules told herself, believing herself.
"Hey, Jules you good?" Her mother came in, checking up on her daughter.
"Yes, why wouldn't I be?" Jules asked with a smile.
"Didn't you heard?" Her mother asked, confused. "What heard?" Jules asked, just as confused as her."One of your classmates was murdered! Samantha was her name, I think?" Her mother said, still a bit shocked. "Oh my god, what?" Jules asked, confused. She couldn't believe it. This would happen in Eden?
Her mother nodded. "Yes, there's an article, wanna see?" Jules nodded. Her mother pulled out her phone, scrolling on it a few minutes before showing Jules an article.Jules took the phone and read the article.
SAMANTHA "SAM" VERINE, SIXTEEN YEARS OLD
MURDERED BY UNKNOWN. -SAMANTHA (16) was found yesterday, her heart ripped out her chest, her body on the banisters. She was calling 911 before, but we think the killer stopped her phone call, her phone was found smashed on the ground. It looked like a fight, glass was all over the floor, a knife in her neck. The killer was really brutal here. We hope the cops find the one who is behind this.
CAMILLE JACKSON, EDEN NEWS.
Jules stared at the phone for a moment before she looked back at her mom. "The killer r- ripped her heart out?" Jules stuttered. She didn't wanted to believe this actually happened.
Her mother nodded. "Yes honey... I'm sorry if she was a good friend of yours...""No, no she wasn't, but I'm surprised and shocked, I mean can this happen in Eden...? It's just so confusing."
