I Will Spare No One

A while ago in the party hall:

Liam, who had been waiting for Lana to return, creased his forehead and looked at his wristwatch. His heart started feeling a little uneasy for some unknown reason.

"What's taking her so long?" He whispered, followed by a long deep sigh. Lana had left, saying she was going to the restroom, but it had been long already and she was nowhere to be seen in the entire party hall.

"You look worried. Where's Lana?" He heard Gracy's voice, who spoke while sitting down right in front of him.

"Gracy, she went to the restroom some time back, and she's still not back yet." Liam answered while he rose from his chair.

Gracy's face crumpled and asked, "where are you going?" She just got the opportunity by ditching that brat Miley, to go to him and spend time around him, and yet here he was about to leave her? She was getting impatient thinking how slowly she was progressing!
