As I felt panic rising up inside me, I kept the phone close to my ear. I looked around the dark and quiet house.
"Where are you?"
I waited for a response. Nothing. The call ended. I silently dialed 911. I told the operator what was going on. She told me to hang tight for the police to get here. I cut the phone off to listen for movement. I didn't hear anything.
As I stood there in silence, I heard something come from upstairs. I started to go up the stairs. I got on the second stair when the police arrived.
