My phone begins ringing and I reach over for it, glancing at the screen. I frown at the flashing screen before sliding the answer button and holding the phone up to my ear.
"Hello?" I say uneasily.
I don't know what it is about unknown numbers, they always creep me out. A deep low voice answers almost immediately —
"Emily."
His voice is smooth, holding such confidence behind it. It sounds like he was smiling on the other end. I immediately felt my spine tingle and I shudder, a bad feeling settling inside my stomach.
"Who is this?" I ask, my heart picking up pace. I don't recognise the voice at all.
"It's your father."
