The sudden sound of my phone ringing woke me up from my sleep.
Shotting my eyes open, I reached out my arm to grab my phone off the lamp table. I squinted when the bright light illuminated in the dark bedroom and it took a second or two before my eyes adjusted to see the screen clearly.
Unknown Number
Could it be . . . .
"Let's exchange phone numbers."
"Why?"
Nonetheless, he handed over his phone and I typed in my contact number before passing it back to him.
"When you need help."
I didn't hesitate to swipe the answer button and press the phone to my ear.
"Luca?"
Rapid breathing was heard on the other side of the line and using my elbow I pushed myself up.
In an alert tone, I called, "Luca?"
"H . .help . . ."

After I told her the address, I hung up the call.
About twenty minutes have passed.
Why am I even sure she would come?
"That someone who wants to help you, Luca, exists."
Maybe she's not that someone . . . . .
I took in quick short breaths, closing my eyes as I waited for help.
I waited for her.
But I didn't think about how she'll leave the academy. Students had a 10 pm curfew and it was way past that. 1:00 am to be exact. The headmasters never bothered about me so sneaking out was easy. Heck, they probably thought I didn't attend anymore and was no longer a student at Winxsor.
However, Kristine . . . . .
"I found him!"
When I thought things couldn't get worst, I was caught hiding in the narrow footpath behind the bar, vulnerable with my back leaning against the wall and wounded. Badly.
My eye opened and I saw the two men starting running in my direction, panic rushed through me.
I couldn't outrun them, not in the state I'm currently in.
"Think you could run from us, kid?", the gruff guy spat out, glaring down at me.
I gritted my teeth. When I attempted to move, I groaned, my wound gushing out more blood. The two started to stalk towards me and my breathing stopped when I saw the bat the other one held.
