Busted

"EMILY!" called a loud, booming voice from beyond the bedroom door.

She leaped off the bed as if she was electrocuted and raced to the door, her hands scrambling, and trembling as she closed the lock.

BOOM!

A fist pounded on the wooden door, causing the hinges to strain and creak.

"Emily Yang open this door!" called the voice.

Liwei jumped up and grabbed his glasses, walking in crazy, restless circles mouthing in a frantic whisper, "What do I do?!!!"

"I don't know!!" she whispered back, tears pooling in her eyes.

Liwei threw a cotton robe at her and searched in her closet for a place to hide.

Emily pulled the robe on, tangling her long hair in the sleeve.

"Who is it?" she called with a fake sleepy voice.

"Open up you fool, or I'll break this door!" he replied kicking the door with a dull thud.

"Dylan?" she asked biting her lip and pushing Liwei into the closet.

"It's Liam," he called, rattling the door handle, "Open the door NOW!"
