"Is it strange?" The delivery driver released the delivery bag and walked away.

I immediately retreated into the house, locked the door, and worried that it might not hold, so I used my body to push against it a few times.

I haven't heard of any recent deaths in my family.

Whose funeral are my parents attending after all?

What does the message on the note mean?

Trembling, I fumbled for my phone and called my parents.

No one answered.

No matter how many times I called, no one answered.

I also sent a message in the family group.

No signal.

No matter what I send, there's no signal!

Just then, I noticed a bold line of text on the receipt from the delivery:

Leave this place. Escape quickly!!!
