I searched all the rooms barefoot, but there was no one. It felt like I had just had a dream.
Tears flowed freely.
“Where are you? Stop teasing me, come out……”
There was a noise at the door.
I rushed out.

“I’m here…… Olivia, I’m……”
I managed a smile.
“You idiot, I’m not calling you……”
“Are you calling me?”
The door was pushed open as a man wrapped in cold air entered.
In the blink of an eye, the surrounding moisture evaporated.

Lucas was lifted by an invisible force and slammed heavily against the wall. Before losing consciousness, he saw the man’s
face clearly.
Identical to his own.
