Chapter 2:

When I got familiar with the building I noticed that the room beside ours had the door slightly open. I peered inside.

"That wasn't part of the deal. The deal was that I'll kill the bastard and I'll be gone. Then you're gonna pay me with the money you owe me. No i dont care if that asshole wants me to do other stuff. Ill kill the guy and be gone. Thats final". A tall man with a husky voice shouted on the phone. He turned around but luckily I slid in our room.

I couldn't believe what he said. He is gonna kill someone. Who? Why? These questions were racing in my head. Ok, ok calm down Kayla just breathe. You are safe. Or at least I thought I was.

I went to bed early. I woke up the next day and I received a call from an unknown number. I answered. Biggest mistake.

"Hello? Who is this? Its 3:00 in the morning!"
"You shouldn't have eavesdropped girl. You are gonna fucking pay."
"Wha-?" He hung up. I didnt know who it was or why the hell he called me but I didn't mind it. It was just a prank call. Dont worry. I thought to myself. But something about his voice was so familiar.

My dad called at around lunch.
"Sweetie, I'm so sorry."
"Dad what happened? What's wrong?"
"Someone emptied all of our bank accounts. Now all of the money is fucking gone, goddamit."
"What? Dad, its fine I'll figure something out."
"Ok sweetie I love you."
"I love you too." I couldn't believe it. It hasn't even been a week! What will I do? How can I be able to stay here in this school?
