Chapter 17

Both of them were hesitant to go get the door. Even Amanda's panic attack was about to kick in. It was then Nelly realized that Amanda also suffers from that too. 

"Ding! Dong!" 

The person might have grown tired from knocking so the still anonymous individual decided to use the doorbell. 

Were they to pretend as if no one was in there? Nelly contemplated more than a hundred thoughts in less than a second. 

"I'll get the door. I'll do it." Nelly volunteered herself. 

"Are you crazy? Do you want to get us both killed?" Amanda countered Nelly's idea. 

Nelly insisted on getting the door:

"You would never know Amanda, it might just be someone looking for directions, someone lost. Or it might be a delivery,a misplaced one." Nelly said all of these in whispers. 

"Delivery? Can you hear yourself?!" Amanda used her own hand to hush her mouth. She noticed she was beginning to raise her voice a little.
