~Alina~Her eyes slid to the wall clock hanging just above the rolling TV. Even though she knew what the time told, she couldn’t help but nervously check again. The room was dark, with the light from the television as the only source of light.“It’s 1am in the morning, why haven’t they gotten back home yet?” Alina thought to herself as she bit through her fingernails anxiously. The feeling of unrest settling deep in her stomach, she couldn't shake off the weird feeling that something was terribly wrong.She sat on the couch, staring at the movie she loved rewatching, but now just felt like a distraction for her wary mind. Alina pulled out her phone to call, but quietly pocketed it again. She didn’t want to call and overreact, it’s not the first time they’re getting home late after all.But still… Tonight was special, it wasn’t like any other night… it was the night just after her birthday, and surely her father and brother couldn’t just miss it for a whole day without a good reason, r
