[Michael pressed himself against the wall, barely daring to breathe. Vincent’s voice echoed through the corridor as he spoke on the phone—his tone calm, calculated.]
[Michael’s heart pounded in his chest when he caught the words—Vincent was speaking to Daniel’s doctor.]
Michael
**Imprison… Daniel?**
[His blood ran cold. If someone had managed to trap Daniel, it could only mean one thing—whoever was behind it was an even bigger monster than him.]
[Michael scanned the area frantically, searching for Eve. Time was running out. Before Vincent could start his search, he managed to slip Eve and Ito out of the hospital, keeping his movements quick and discreet.]
[Just as they stepped outside, his phone buzzed. He glanced at the screen—his bank balance was nearly drained. A frustrated sigh escaped him.]
Michael
I guess we’ll have to walk this time… No cab for us. [He muttered, stuffing his phone back into his pocket.]
Eve (Female lead)
Where are we even going? [Eve sighed, glancing around with uncertainty.] My house is gone, I have no phone, no money… nothing. The only option we have is Daniel’s house, but it’s practically on the outskirts. Last time I walked all the way there, and the next day, I genuinely thought I’d lost my legs.
