(Do you believe in magic? If you do, you’ll see the trick.) Valeria sat down restlessly, both hands pressed to her temples like she was trying to keep the world from spinning. When things finally settled down a little, she felt completely drained. She knew if she didn’t eat or drink something soon, she might faint at any moment. But her mind was locked on one thing—finding Olivia safe and sound. She couldn’t let her body collapse in the middle of the carnival, then wake up to find out it was already past eight. To keep looking for Olivia, she needed energy. With heavy steps, she walked to the nearest food stand and bought a hot dog and a bottle of water. She found a seat under the shade of a big tree, then scarfed down the hot dog as fast as she could without choking. After the last bite, she took a long drink of water and splashed some on her face. The cold hit her skin hard—it was already sensitive from exhaustion—sending a sting through almost every inch of her body. But she s

A massive building suddenly appeared in front of Valeria, making her stop in her tracks. The walls were painted black with red splatters that looked like dripping blood. Valeria winced at the sight, instantly reminded of the image of the deer she had seen earlier. Twisted neon lights formed the words Haunted House, hanging above the entrance, with a mechanical clown face beside it that opened and closed its mouth on repeat. The clown alone was creepy enough to make Valeria’s skin crawl. No wonder the kids were scared yesterday. Then, something clicked in her mind. She pulled a torn yellow balloon from her pocket and looked at the little black cabin drawn on its surface. She glanced between it and the haunted house in front of her. They didn’t match. Was she even in the right place? “Of course,” Valeria thought. “Did I really expect him to draw the haunted house accurately? Maybe this was the plan all along—to make me doubt and waste time.” She checked her watch. Half past six. Pus

She ran back into the room and found the axe. But then her eyes caught something that made her frown. She looked at the axe in her hand again, then glanced back at the suspicious object—but chose to ignore it for now. She ran back to the locked door. With what little strength she had left, she started swinging the axe at the door hinges. After a few hard strikes, she finally created enough of a gap between the frame and the lock to open the door. She rushed in, only to find the room completely empty. No one was there. Her breath came in short gasps, emotions tangled, and a frustrated groan escaped her lips. This all felt like a huge waste of time and energy. But at least now she knew—Olivia wasn’t in that room. Suddenly, she heard a loud pounding sound, like fists hitting wood over and over again. Valeria froze for a second, thinking. What if it was just another trap to waste more of her time? She glanced at her watch. It was already 9:46. But the sound didn’t stop, and eventuall

The Next Day "Here," Lily said, handing Valeria a glass of water for her headache medicine. "Thanks," Valeria replied with a small smile before drinking it. She sighed in relief as the warm water slid down her throat, easing the pain in her head a little. "Good morning!" Sean greeted cheerfully. "Good morning!" the kids shouted as they ran over and kissed his cheeks. "How are you feeling?" he asked Valeria. "Headache," she said with a soft shake of her head. "Let’s go to the doctor," Sean responded right away. "I already called one. He said I just need to take the meds for now, but if the pain doesn’t go away, I have to go to the hospital," Valeria explained. "He also said not to wait too long. If it’s still bad tonight, I need to go in," Lily added. "We’re going to the hospital tonight then!" Sean said firmly before Valeria could say anything. But the sound of a car pulling up outside stopped the conversation. They all looked toward the door, curious about who c

Creak.Creak.The chair kept creaking as Valeria rocked back and forth on it, staring at the photos in her lap. Her mind was a mess. The threats to her kids and herself that had been haunting her were now completely overshadowed by one thing—those photos.In them, Sean stood next to a woman dressed in white. It clearly wasn’t Alexa. No matter how similar they looked, the expression, the shape of the eyebrows, and the smile were different.Valeria knew the woman in the photo was her. She still remembered the day Karen first saw her and burst into tears. Sean had said it was because she looked a lot like Karen’s daughter. But Valeria never imagined that the resemblance actually meant something deeper.Everyone knew how much the past meant to her. Finding out the truth about it was the one thing she wanted more than anything. So why would anyone hide something like this from her? Why would they mess with her head like this?She looked at the next photo, and her eyes locked onto a full ve
