The Apartment Next Door

Lucy roused from sleep by the sound of Sonia's ringing tone. She couldn't believe that she had slept off on the couch. Her whole body ached due to the cramped position she had slept in.

Lucy stood up and stretched out her body before it occured to her that Sonia wasn't in the living room. Where was Sonia? She wondered as she called out to Sonia, but didn't get a response. Her eyes fell on Sonia's phone which had resumed ringing again after the first disconnected call. She picked it up when she saw that it was Sonia's editor who was calling, and silenced the phone as she walked around her little apartment in search of Sonia.

By the time she returned to the living room once again, it was obvious to her that Sonia wasn't in the apartment. She glanced at the door and sighed when she noticed that her slide slippers wasn't there.
