Long Chen had only recently closed his eyes as he tried to sleep. Unfortunately, his brief, peaceful moment was disturbed by a sudden noise.
It was a minor noise, but it was still audible in the silence of the night.
Opening his eyes slowly, Long Chen sat up before he started sliding towards the other end of the bed.
Leaving his room, he started walking downstairs from where he believed the sound came from. His mother's room was near his room on the higher floor, so it was strange to hear a noise coming from downstairs.
Was his father back? Or was it his mother? No matter who it was, he decided to check to be safe.
Placing his feet slowly on the ground, he walked downstairs to make as little noise as possible. Strangely the sound he had heard never came again. So he had to search the whole house to know who it was.
