- JIMIN

Miss Lee's eyes widened in disbelief.

"I think he's after me," I whispered to her.

"But how did he find us?" Miss Lee asked.

"I really don't know."

We were still below the window and could see a shadow on the floor in front of us, walking back and forth. I gulped. Out of a sudden, Miss Lee turned to look at me.

"Jimin... the backdoor––it's unlocked," she uttered, looking very anxious.

Oh no.

Uncle Dan could enter the house from there.

"Where is it?" I asked her, looking around the house in my position.

"It's in the kitchen," Miss Lee responded.

"We need to lock it!" I exclaimed softly.

She nodded. We saw the shadow on the floor moving to the left before disappearing. Then, we saw Uncle Dan walking by the side of the house heading towards the back––where the backdoor was at.

"Oh shucks! We need to lock it now!" Miss Lee exclaimed.

The two of us dashed out from the living room and headed to the kitchen. We immediately ducked our heads seeing Uncle Dan approaching from a corner. We had to 'duck-walk' our way to the backdoor just to get there faster without being seen. As I reached the door, I quickly reached out for the latch from below and locked the door.




Phew.







Or so I thought.

All of a sudden, loud pounding of the fists could be heard on the door. I was jolted out of my skin and fell on my butt.

"Let's go, let's go!" Miss Lee pulled me by my wrist.

We ran out of the kitchen and went up the stairs to the second floor of the house.

"We need to call the Police, now, now," Miss Lee said anxiously as she entered her bedroom.

She was searching around for something before panicking.

"Oh no, my phone is downstairs on the dining table! Do you have yours?" She asked.

That was when I realised I had not charge my phone at all after my release from the prison.

From all the days, why today?

I told her about it and she panicked even more.

"The electricity's out so we can't charge your phone––I need to get mine!" She exclaimed before walking out of her room.

"No, no––"

Out of a sudden, we heard a loud slam from downstairs, clearly hinting to us that the backdoor broke open.
