Death. What is it? Why it come and take away our loved ones from us? Death is like a brother of sleep. A restful and peaceful sleep - the sleep of forever.

"How is Brett?" Daddy asked Mom who just came and sat beside him.

"The doctor gave him anesthesia. He is sleeping." Mom sighed and added, "At least for now."

"We will find out whoever did this." Daddy said to all of us. We all were sitting in the hall. My mind was numb at that moment. I did not want to think anything either.

"Everything happened so quickly that it feels so unrealistic," Caro commented.

"Anna was an important part of our family. We will do what we can and the least is to find out that Bastard." Daddy growled angrily. "But first we should double all security." He added.

I bit my humorless chuckle.

"I talked with all the guards, you don't worry about it, Uncle." Liam entered the hall and sat beside Caro.

"CCTV of that part of the yacht is disappeared," Liam said with a frown.

Here my control ended. I sucked a sharp breath in. I couldn't bear it anymore. I should leave before I say or do something I would regret later.

"I want to go to my room. Can I?" I stood up and asked loudly, trying to sound polite instead of furious.

"Sure... You should rest a bit." Mom smiled and nodded at me. I nodded back and headed upstairs.

They always did this same thing. Sat here and discussed it like a hot gossip topic and then, at last, ended up doubling the security. What was the use of all that? They never succeeded in protecting anyone nor they would. Because that blue-eyed guy was always one step ahead of us. He always knew everything. It was so serious and dangerous, they had no idea!

I entered my room and saw a hallucination of Anna coming out of my closet and passed a beautiful smile at me. Before I could reach her she vanished in the air. I felt the ball of tears in my throat grew hard and now uncontrollable.

I locked the door and leaned with it. I let the warm tears scrolled down my cheeks. I cried silently. When the heaviness of my heart didn't decrease, I did a stupid thing that was so foolish of me.

I picked my phone and mailed at the same unknown email which he used to send me threats. I wrote 'Why did you kill Anna?' and send it. I didn't aspect him to reply but to my surprise he did. I immediately read it.

'Because she saw and hear something which she was not supposed to do so...'

My eyes grew so big as I stand startled at my spot.

It means he was there on the yacht. He was with us! Who it could be? My mind started to spin at the thought that he could be someone I know.

"It's really simple - the real culprit is in front of you. Alas! You trust someone whom you don't know. Of course, you know them but you know what they want you to know." I heard a feminine familiar voice.

I looked at her unable to say something. She was sitting comfortably on my bed. It was a long ago since she last came to visit me. My Masked Savior, my life savior, and of course my advisor, advises which I never understood.

"What do you mean?" I said still in a startling stance.

My mind was stuck at a point that it could be someone I know. Someone so near me, a person in a mask of friend or relative yet our real foe.
