Everyone prepared their guns as the urgent knocking continued. Then they all heard someone say:
"Lia? Lia, are you in here? Please open the door?"
Lillian blinked repeatedly as all the people in the room looked at her like she was caught cheating on her husband. She quickly wiped the tears on her face. She recognized that voice.
It was Dennis, her friend who owned the hotel. She put her index finger on her lips, telling everyone to be quite as she walked to the door.
They looked hesitant to let her open the door but she did anyway before they could stop her.
"Dennis, what's going on?" Lillian asked upon opening the door and closed it behind her.
"Lily, are you alright? Why are your eyes red? Have you been crying?" Dennis asked with a concerned voice. He even caressed Lillian's cheek.
"I'm fine. I was watching a tragic movie just a while ago and it made me cry," Lillian reasoned.
