One stormy night, Jess returned home to find her front door ajar. Her heart raced as she stepped inside, clutching a knife she'd started carrying for protection. The house was eerily quiet. She called out, "Who's there?" but there was no answer. Then she saw her—Lila, standing at the end of the hallway, her face pale and her eyes filled with hatred. "You left me to die," Lila said, her voice cold and steady. "You thought you could just walk away, but I'm not done with you." Jess backed away, trembling. "Lila, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to—" "Save it," Lila interrupted. "You've never been sorry for anything. You've always thought you were untouchable. But now it's your turn to pay." Lila lunged at Jess, and a brutal fight ensued. Jess fought with everything she had, but Lila was fueled by rage and vengeance. They crashed into furniture, shattered glass, and left the house in ruins. In the end, Jess managed to overpower Lila, pinning her to the ground. Lila laughed, a chilling sound that sent shivers down Jess's spine. "You think this is over? You'll never escape what you've done." With tears streaming down her face, Jess made a choice. She plunged the knife into Lila's chest, ending her life. As Lila's body went still, Jess collapsed beside her, sobbing. She had survived, but at what cost? The guilt and trauma would haunt her forever.
