She sat up in bed, perked her ears, and focused her observation.
Outside, it also went silent, as if the other party was waiting for an opportunity.

She immediately held her breath to prevent inhaling it into her body and falling victim to someone's malicious scheme.

The door handle was fiddled with and opened from the outside.
"Creeeak…!"
