Death. The one word that everybody fears. The only thing that ends everything but in Leyla's case, it's another life.
It all started when Julian betrayed Leyla and even pushed her off a yacht, trying to drown her and kill her. It was at that time t...

LEYLA
I can't believe him. What kind of person is he? He's just a stranger to me and yet he thinks he knows everything about my best friend. He doesn't even know Sebastian. I walked back in the living room to find Sebastian gone. Huh? Where did he go?
"Sebastian?" I called his name. There was no reply. I walked out of the living room and went towards the kitchen where I heard something being dropped onto the floor. "Where the heck is he?" I muttered under my breath as I stepped in the kitchen.
I couldn't help but gasp in shock as I was greeted by an unruly kitchen. Everything was out of place. The windows were shattered into pieces and shattered glass was scattered around the room. I stood there frozen in place once I read the words painted on the wall. 'Come and get him or else....' Who would do this? Just below the sentence, there was an odd symbol of a circle with an x in the middle of it. Huh?
I immediately ran out of the kitchen and panicked. What should I do? I frantically went upstairs and ran into my room to grab my phone. Although I lost my old one back in the other realm, I have a spare just in case something happens. I scrambled to closet and started searching for it. Where is it? N-No. I can't find it.
I heard footsteps coming towards my direction before I could even think of something. "I need a favor just before I leave," I heard Evan say. I didn't reply and continued searching. "Hey? Why are you ignoring me? Is there anything wrong? You seem panicky," he added. Why can't you just shut your mouth for a moment? I'm in a very serious situation right now.
He let out a deep sigh and said, "To be fair, I helped you when you needed help. I think it's only fair if-" I immediately interrupted him in the middle of his sentence. "Just let me be. I'm busy. I'll do it later. Can you just leave?"
He let out a sarcastic laugh before saying, "Busy? Are you sure you don't want help? Cause you look like you've seen a ghost." I didn't react to his statement. "Fine," he said before finally leaving the room. I heard him walk downstairs making me feel even more nervous. I stopped searching once I realized that it was futile.
I heard a yelp of pain coming from downstairs making me ran out of the room and immediately running down the stairs frightened of what's about to happen. I heard it again. It seemed to come from the kitchen. I walked in the kitchen to find Evan looking at the wall in puzzlement. "What....is this?" he whispered before turning his head towards me.
He looked back at the wall and as soon as he placed his eyes on the symbol, his eyes widened in shock. "I-Impossible. Wait. This is....." I looked at him in confusion, furrowing my eyebrows. He rubbed his eyes and blinked. "This is...No. It can't be," he added while shaking his head in disbelief.
