Attention

"No matter how clever you are at storing carcasses, one day you will definitely smell the rotten smell." For some reason, the words that the young man said continued to stick in his mind. Soraya felt that this sentence was very suitable for the difficult situation she was currently experiencing.

In front of him, who was daydreaming, David continued to watch and try to attract his attention, which seemed to have not yet returned from his subconscious.

"Soraya? Are you okay? Soraya?" David tried to greet him and wake him up from the reverie that had lasted almost all day.

"Soraya?"

"Ah yes David? You talking to me?"

"Your total purchases are 35 Pounds. Is there anything extra?"

"N-no, nothing. That's all!" He said while taking several bills from his wallet.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine! I'm just sleepy and after this I'll go straight home and sleep."

"You made me very worried. Yesterday I thought that the girl picked up by the ambulance was you. But after seeing that you were okay, I felt very relieved."

"I'm fine, David! Thanks for worrying about me!"

"What really happened? Even though you claimed that you were fine, I felt like you were in trouble. Tell me, what's wrong? I'll try to help you!"

"It's nothing, everything is fine. You don't need to worry!"

"Is it true?"

"Yes."

"Okay, but it looks like you have to clear up the misunderstanding that occurred!"

"Misunderstanding? What do you mean?"

"People who live around you said that shortly before the incident, they heard you arguing with Kerry Smith. After that they heard you screaming for help and some of them also saw blood coming out of Kerry Smith's wrist and also a folding knife. They made the allegation that you had made Kerry Smith depressed and depressed and decided to harm herself."

"What? Me? How could they think like that?" Soraya was very shocked to learn that she had been suspected of being the reason Kerry attempted suicide.

"That's why I hope you tell me what really happened to straighten this problem out before it gets worse."

"I don't know anything! I don't understand why he did it either. We did argue, but-"

"Listen, I don't care what you think, but I have to tell you that you are in very big trouble. What happened to Kerry, it was definitely your fault. I'm sure you made it so there was no other choice. Tch, you damn slut I will make you suffer a very severe punishment!" The threatening words that Josh said came back to his mind.

Soraya fell silent, she felt much more afraid than before. He felt he was being threatened and forced to remain silent. However, rumors circulating made him seem like a suspect.

"Soraya? Tell me, what happened?"

"I'm fine, David. The problem that happened was just a misunderstanding. I think Kerry also chose other problems that made him depressed. I should have been able to help him become a good listener. Moreover, we are already roommates. I feel very sorry for ignoring him. , after he is discharged from the hospital and returns to the dormitory, I will apologize to him."

"Soraya?"

"Okay, then I'll excuse myself. See you?" He said as he hurried and lifted his feet from this place before David forced him to tell what really happened.

Soraya ran towards the dormitory building when the rain began to fall, helping her cover her flowing tears. Soraya felt very disappointed knowing that everyone thought she was the cause of the problems that occurred.

Soraya stood in front of her bedroom door in wet clothes. When he tried to open the door with the key, he felt something strange. The door wasn't locked, even though he was pretty sure he had locked it this morning.

"Not locked? How can that be? I'm sure I locked it this morning. Did someone come in? Kerry? No way, he's still in hospital. But who?"

With trembling hands, Soraya opened the bedroom door slowly. His eyes widened when he saw his room which was very messy as if a thief had just arrived. The cupboard was open and all her clothes were strewn across the floor and bed. Some clothes were even torn and stained with mud.

Soraya frantically checked all her belongings. He didn't find anything missing. It's just that some of his clothes had been torn by force and he had deliberately stepped on them with muddy shoes.

"Who did it?" He couldn't believe what happened. Who would have the heart to do this to him? Entering her room and ruining her clothes?

In the midst of her panic, Soraya found something on her study table. A piece of paper written in blood.

'You will receive a painful torment. Bad girls must be punished, you will go to hell. I will definitely eliminate you before you can escape. If you want to be safe, follow the words and don't try to report this to anyone.'

Seeing how this threatening letter was written, Soraya was very sure that the perpetrator was Joshua, Kerry's lover. Soraya cried, she didn't expect that she would experience all this.

His tears flowed freely, he missed his family. Somehow she started to regret her decision to live far from her family only to disappear there as a spoiled girl who always depended on others.

Outside, the rain was falling heavily. Making the autumn air even colder. The clothes he wore on his body began to dry. Soraya was still crying even though her head felt so dizzy. This problem made him very depressed, even though he had only been in this city for two months as a student. But the loneliness he felt seemed to have been around for years.

"Mom, what should I do? I didn't do anything wrong at all, but why? Why is this all my fault? Mother, I want to go home."
