When Love Comes Late
The call ended abruptly after the callerâs intimidation.
Seconds later, Stella received a photo.
She opened the image and zoomed in.
It was undeniably her grandfather, Clint.
He lay in a bed, unconscious.
Her face turned ashen.
Without a second thought, she made her way to the catering department on the third floor.
Upon reaching the third floor, Stellaâs phone rang once more, flashing the same unfamiliar number.
She hastily answered the call.
âProceed to the freezer in the catering department immediately.

Anxiously, Stella scanned her surroundings as she demanded, âWho are you? Where have you taken my grandfather?â
The only response was a disconnection tone.
Stellaâs face clouded over.
It was clear the mysterious caller was watching her every move in real-time.

Itâs me, Stellaâ¦â
Before she could finish, the door behind her slammed shut.
Startled, she wheeled around.
She tried to open the door, but failed.
âIs anyone out there?â Stella pounded on the door.
âWhoâs there? Let me out!â
Cold air enveloped her, sending shivers down her spine.
Stella tried to steady her nerves, rubbing her arms for warmth.
Shaking, she took out her phone to call for help, but the signal was too weak and calls to Miley failed to connect.
Frost formed on Stellaâs eyelashes as she continued to shiver uncontrollably.
She kept rubbing her hands together to keep warm, but it didnât help one bit.
