"Hello, my dear Gina."
The eerily low yet seemingly playful voice was enough to make Gina Larson opened her eyes right away. She was lying on the bed and closed her eyes as soon as the Brigadier left. She usually did this when she was alone though she was hardly left alone.
All at once, her body became tensed and she lay there, frozen. She didn't even need to look at the door to know who the man was. She would recognize him just from his footsteps! Her pupils dilated in fear and she hardly squeezed the blanket with her hands.
Gina could hear the footsteps that were closer and closer to her bed and in no time, the man was standing next to her. He glanced down at her and when she saw his usual face - playful yet intimidating, tears rolled down at the side of her face!
