To distract Tyler, Vicky said, "I asked Alex when Gloria was kidnapped, and he said he didn't do it. I know him, and he wouldn't deny his involvement if he was responsible."
"You've only met him a few times, and you claim to know him?" Tyler mocked.
Vicky wanted to argue that she knew Alex since they were children, but that only made sense if she did not lose her memories.
Ever since she suffered from amnesia, she had only met with Alex a few times.
Noticing her silence, Tyler said, "When Gloria comes back, I'll let her do whatever she wants with Alex. According to what I know about Gloria, she wouldn't go too far. I don't want to hear any more of this."
His mood was seemingly affected by the mention of Alex, and he was distracted from the earlier discussion, so he simply picked Vicky up and carried her back to the bedroom.
...
"Vicky, are you afraid of me?"
"Why are you running away? Have I not treated you well?"
"Vicky, don't go. I won't hurt you..."
"Ah!" Vicky jolted awake screaming and panting heavily.
Her pajamas were completely drenched in sweat, and as she saw the sunlight shining into the room through the curtains, she realized that it was all just a nightmare.
She glanced at her feet and could still feel the hand in her dream dragging her into the depths of hell.
Thankfully, Tyler was not in the room, or she would not be able to make any more excuses to explain her behavior.
After washing up, Vicky skipped her breakfast and picked up her phone to send a text to a certain number that she remembered.
