The Unrest That Happens

Almost 15 minutes had passed, but Nick had not returned. Hannah was very worried about her husband. She wanted to follow him there to look for him, but that would endanger her and Lucas.

"Nick, where are you? Why aren't you back?" she muttered worriedly.

She even picked up a wooden spatula in case someone entered the house. Hannah hugged Lucas tightly as she watched their surroundings.

Tap tap tap...

Suddenly she heard footsteps entering the house. Worried that it was a stranger or perhaps the man next door. She put Lucas down and asked her grandson to stay there while she checked.

"You stay here while I check outside. If anything happens, hide. Understood?"

Lucas nodded in understanding then watched his grandmother walk out of the living room. Hannah walked very carefully until she finally saw a man nearby.

She reflexively hit the man with her wooden spatula while closing her eyes in fear.
