I took several deep breaths to calm myself, then turned to check on my son. Fortunately, he was still sleeping soundly.

I carefully lifted the quilt and got out of bed. I padded out of the room as quietly as I could and paused at the empty corridor.

The cold was brutal in winter nights, and goosebumps immediately rose on my skin. It felt especially chilly at my nape, and I subconsciously reached up to rub it for some warmth.

"Who are you?" I quickly typed and sent to the unknown number.

No reply came, however. Not even when my fingers began to feel numb.

A part of me knew that I had a slim chance of finding this person right now, but I still called them back.
