Fire In The Backyard [I]

The light went out all of a sudden, and the darkness poured down like a thick black waterfall. Five fingers could not be seen in the narrow space.

The extreme fear came, and the muscles of Essie were all tightened. She curled up in the corner, her hands and feet were cold, and her body kept trembling. She wanted to ask for help, but the phone fell to the ground in fear and couldn't be found. Remembering that there was a satellite phone in her handbag, she quickly found it out in shiver. This was given to her by Zac when she was in Sea City. It was the previous one, which was for his exclusive use. Whenever she called, he would be right there.

Her head was so short of oxygen that she couldn't figure out who she was going to call. She just subconsciously pressed the dial button. There was only one number in it, and the phone was automatically connected.
