Bab 92: Dangerous Roommate!

Hugo and Jessica approached the house, their footsteps echoing faintly on the quiet street. 

The apartment door stood in front of them like a portal to a different world. Hugo adjusted his hoodie nervously, his heart still racing from the earlier bike shenanigans.

Jessica knocked on the door, her fist tapping a steady rhythm. They waited. No response. She knocked again, harder this time.

"Maybe your roommate's asleep?" Hugo suggested. 'Please let her not be asleep. Goddess of luck, I beg you! Don't let all my efforts tonight get wasted before I even begin!'

Jessica ignored him, pounding the door louder. "Luny! Come on, open up! I forgot my keys!"

From inside, a sultry voice floated through the door. "Who is it?"

Hugo froze, the blood draining from his face. That voice—he knew that voice. It sent a shiver down his spine, not out of fear but sheer disbelief.
