"Yes ma'am," Ana looked gloomy.

"Mama has sent your living expenses there. Mama will rarely call you, and I don't think I need to tell you why. You definitely understand," replied the mother.

"Mmm, how are you, Eric, ma'am?" Ana changed the conversation.

"Eric is fine, he is starting to get busy with his activities,"

"Ma, why doesn't Eric take his master's degree here, with Ana?"

"Not everything has to be about you, right Ana?" said her mother, who seemed uncomfortable communicating with Ana.

"Are you tired, Mama?" Ana's voice was heard, which was sad.

"Sigh, sorry, mom has a lot of work, mom still has to take care of office data," replied her mother, indirectly confirming Ana's words.

"Okay, I think, mom needs rest. "Thank you for calling Ana ma," said the girl softly.

The next minute, communication between the two seemed to be lost.

Ana looked at the expansive view of the city in front of her. He immediately remembered that he was truly alone in that city.

Ana and Eric are not siblings. After Ana's mother divorced her biological father, the woman decided to remarry a cold, rich businessman.

The man has a son who is 3 years older than Ana.

Ana's stepfather is a man who is very strict and disciplined, maybe the man seems crazy about this, to the point that it affects his environment.

Ana's stepfather actually really loves Ana, it's just that the man is very busy, that affection only shines when Ana meets her father directly.

Eric, was a young man who initially rejected Ana's presence, but for some reason, in the past year, everything seemed to be getting better. The young man began to lower his voice. And started to act warmly when talking to Ana. But for some reason, he always tried to avoid meeting Ana in person.

It's been an hour since Ana first saw the night view of the city from the window of her apartment.

Kreekk

Ana was amazed, the sound of the door opening sounded softly in her ears.

Ana was shocked, because only the teak wood cupboard door in her room could make a sound like that.

Ana immediately closed the giant glass curtains, eliminating the beautiful view she had been watching.

Ana walked towards her room which was dominated by blue,

"Why is the door open?" Ana thought when she found the teak cupboard not far from her bed half open.

"Is anyone coming in?" said Ana, who was starting to get alert.

Very carefully, the girl approached her cupboard, then checked the contents of the cupboard which looked still neat.

Ana frowned even more confused, she never left the cupboard open, and she always locked the cupboard door.

CCTV, that's what popped into Ana's head.

The girl headed towards her bedroom door after taking her black cardigan from the cupboard.

However,

"Why is the door locked?" said Ana while trying to press the door handle to her room.

" Where are you going?" The sound surprised Ana.

Ana was shocked when she found a figure hiding in one of the curtains in her room.

Ana didn't make a sound, but it was clear that the girl was afraid. His chest rose and fell, his face was pale and his eyes looked wet.

"Are you surprised that I can enter your room?" said the figure in a black jacket with a black mask.

"You...you, who?" said Ana breathlessly.

The figure didn't answer, he just came out of hiding, then sat on Ana's bed and looked at the girl sharply.

"I am your nightmare," he said, looking coldly at the sweet girl.

" Who are you?!!" shouted Ana frantically.

Ha ha…

The figure just laughed. It was difficult for Ana to recognize the voice, her voice was hoarse, blocked by the mask she was wearing.

"You dare to live in an apartment this big alone, great girl," he said, starting to stand up.

"Don't come any closer, or I'll scream!!" said Ana.

" Shout? Are you sure you want to scream in this soundproof room?” taunted the figure.

Yes… every room in the apartment is soundproof.

“What do you want from me?” shouted Ana.

"I told you, I'm your nightmare,"

Ana dodged when the person threw a glass at the door.

" You are crazy!!" shouted Ana.

The figure just laughed with joy when he saw Ana panic.

" Who are you!!" shouted Ana, who was now in the corner of the room.

"Is that your habit? Repeating the same boring sentences?!!”

Ah...

Ana fell, her feet slipped until she lay on the floor.

"Let go," the girl cried.

Now it was clear that the figure was a man.

The man proudly sat on Ana's stomach while holding the girl's hands directly on her head.

"Why is it beautiful? Where is your tough and arrogant face?!” he said mocking the girl.

Wow!!!

Ana spat on the man's black mask.

"Bastard woman,"

Ana suddenly fainted from the figure's blow.

Early morning,

I woke up to the heat in my room. Looks like I forgot to turn on the AC.

Suddenly, I was shocked and immediately looked around the room.

" Where is he?"

I got up while making sure that all my clothes were still neatly put on.

I started checking for broken glass that hit the door last night, but strangely, I didn't find any glass or anything like that there. Instead, I found the glass still intact on the small cupboard near my bed.

"Am I dreaming?" I thought in a daze.

Now I'm sitting right on the edge of my bed, trying to reason out what happened.

"No, this isn't a dream," I thought as I continued to try to remember everything that happened last night.

"Yes... CCTV, I have to check it,"

I got up, was about to walk to my study table,

Ah..

I lost my balance because my head suddenly felt dizzy. But when I spontaneously touched my forehead, there was pain that emerged from there.

Yes, I remember, and I'm sure this isn't a dream. This is real. The pain in my forehead must have been caused by the person last night.

Immediately I reached my study table, opened the PC and immediately accessed the CCTV. And really, all this confuses me.
