The next day, the friends decided to take Sheila to the hospital due to her condition. The doctor said physically she was fine, but she was under severe stress. When Sheila recalled those moments, she squeezed her hands together and quietly said:
"He… he was whispering... he said something incomprehensible... but there was one sentence I clearly heard: 'You've come back...'"
Fred and the others looked at each other.
"'You've come back...'" Victoria whispered. "So, whoever that person is, he was waiting for us..."
These words only intensified the fear within everyone.
Orlich placed his hand on his chin and thought.
"We know someone used to live in that basement. But maybe that person is still around... and is worried about us being here?"
Ethan furrowed his brows.
"Then why didn't he just chase us away? Why did he keep Sheila there?"
There was no answer to that question.
