"Damn it!" Guigu swore under his breath. Why am I even worried about others? I should take care of myself first!
The two people in the room instinctively held their breath, afraid that even the sound of their breathing might attract the attention of whatever was outside.
The thing outside lingered for only a few seconds. It seemed to confirm no one was inside before leaving immediately.
Night of Roses looked at Guigu with a puzzled expression, as if asking why the thing outside hadn't come in for a look.
Guigu, surprisingly understanding his meaning, rolled his eyes. You really want it to come in and check?
He breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at the time.
It was exactly 10:39. In another thirty seconds, the bolt on the door would become ineffective. If the ghost outside had tried to enter just moments ago, it wouldn't have been able to push the door open, but it would have known people were inside.
