Veronica was standing behind the bush. Just then, she heard footsteps. It seemed like the owner of the footsteps headed in her direction. She hurriedly sat down. 'Am I busted?' She thought nervously.
She didn't dare to look up to check who it was. Her heart was thumping so loud that she was afraid that the person who was walking closer would hear her heartbeat.
The sound of the footsteps gradually intensified. She held her breath and braced herself. She prepared herself for the worst.
To her surprise, the person walked past the bush she was hiding behind.
Veronica waited until the person walked further away. Only when the footsteps almost turned faint did she open her eyes. As she couldn't curb her curiosity, she peeked to see where that person was going.
She noticed a dark figure. She couldn't recognize the figure. It slowly but steadily walked in the direction of the room where Sister Ruth just died. Then the figure disappeared inside the room.
