After i set down in my apartment, i reached into my pocket and pulled out the note mom gave me.

"Shane, i don't know who is Abby but you can't trust her... The day i arrived into your ward, i saw Abby staring at you with a really wide smile for a really long time. For a second, i really thought that she's super creepy and plus you never really told me about her. I'm worried about you son... But there's a real truth that you need to know, you have a girlfriend called Anna, i have never met her but you told me everything about her and she lives in Melbourne. I'm leaving her phone number at the back of this letter. Take care son -Mom."

I turned the paper and hastily grind in on the number.

The first idea that came to me was "phone"

I went around on every corner of the room, hoping that there's money that maybe i had saved or hidden somewhere. If i managed to get enough money, I'll purchase a phone, try to get in touch with Anna and fill her in with everything up till now.

10 minutes of dismantling everything in my room, i finally found a quite large amount of money behind my bookshelf. I head out of my apartment and quickly ran out to the nearest phone outlet. I didn't know where Abby was and it worried me so much, but my current priority need to be fulfilled first.

After i purchased the phone, i quickly called the number mom gave me.

1 ring... 2 ring... 3 ring...

"Hello? who is it?" Anna said.

"Anna? it's me Shane, i don't really remember who you are but hear me out! I was in the hospital last week because of that psycho attack, and now I'm suffering from memory loss. This psycho claimed to be a girl called Abigail, she told my mom that she's my bestfriend and had stayed with me for the past week, she doesn't know that i'm contacting you right now but can you please tell this to your parents and the police, my life really depends on you right now babe. This psycho killed a family before and she might be willing to kill me if she found out about this." I said panicly.

"Sh..Shane? this isn't a joke right? seriously... this is really not the time to play around, i had someone rang the bell outside the house literally right before you called me and she has this long brown hair with a pretty gorgeous look... and she claimed to be your friend as well?" Anna said nervously.

"YES BABE! That might be her, call the police and whatever you do, don't open the door for her. Lock yourself in your room right now!" I told her.

"Dad? what happened back there?" Anna yelled.

A scream full of fear and despair came through my phone... It was Anna's scream.
