บท 96: The devil

"Caleb?"

The vision was blurry already and yet the lights had turned off now, leaving L in the middle of confusion. "It is okay. Wait here, I will be back" A whisper crawled into the woman's ears, scratching her heart. No, this was not right at all. "But Caleb, you can tell someone-"

As L attempted to grab the hand of Caleb who was about to walk off, the man responded. "Stay Here. I will be back" For the first ever time, his tone sounded harsh, deep, and annoyed. Surprising L entirely. Where did the Caleb go? Surely, this was not the Caleb she knew.

"Okay then. Go on" Beneath a frown, she took her hand back, harshly to reveal her exasperation. "Great, don't move" After leaving the words, Caleb left the hall, without a turn at all. The dreamy atmosphere had disappeared. The chills ran down the woman's spine.
