crime fear fiction mystery-thriller suspense thrill

23rd October, Monday

Heidi Granger was relaxing on her sofa, sipping away her hot chocolate, making plans inside her head, when suddenly someone knocked on her front door.

'THUD THUD THUD! THUD THUD THUD!'

She peeped into the door hole and saw 2 weird looking men. They wore the same thing: everything black from head to toe, including the shades and a shiny cream colored tie.
Her instincts told her not to open the door since she was home alone. So she decided to be extremely quiet to make the men think that the house was empty. 

'THUD THUD THUD! THUD THUD THUD!' they knocked again, harder than before.

She waited for 15 long minutes and peeped again. The taller guy was leaving. The plump guy took out an envelope and place it on her door mat before he left. When the two men were no longer in sight, Heidi opened the door and quickly grabbed the envelope. 
It was a shiny cream colored envelope and there were only two words in maroon: 'Joseph Granger'
Heidi's jaw dropped,
"Dad?!"
