Krystal Flack quietly locked the door and tiptoed towards Basil Jaak's bed.
"Jaak, Jaak..." Krystal called out in a soft voice to Basil Jaak. The high pitch of her voice was eerily reminiscent of a scene from a Ching-Ying Lam movie.
Basil Jaak suddenly opened his eyes and yelled at Krystal, "Middle of the night, and you're not going to sleep, you're in my room and yelling for what reason!"
"Ah..." Krystal was frightfully startled by Basil Jaak's sudden outburst. She hastily jumped two steps backwards, realizing that her voice was a bit loud. She quickly covered her mouth and prayed fervently, "Buddha, Buddha, I hope my sister Jessica didn't hear me."
Basil Jaak found this amusing. Your sister Jessica is right here in my bed, how could she have not heard it, but he didn't reveal this fact.
After Krystal finished her prayer, she looked surprised and asked, "Weren't you asleep?"
