Who is that?

Mira is a city girl who is always busy with her school, studies, exams, and part-time job. But suddenly, a pandemic occurred, so she had to stay at home.

Mira was scrolling on social media when suddenly she saw a beautiful girl getting ready for nothing but looked beautiful after a makeover.

One Monday, Mira was lying in her bed scrolling through social media.

"Wow! It's a nice idea, I must say. She looks cool. And... Before the pandemic, Monday used to be a stressful and busy day. But now, it's just another boring, unproductive day. Because I live alone, I haven't even had a nice, fresh shower for days. Now I stink like a rat. I haven't even done my skincare; my face is filled with pimples and bumps. I haven't cut my nails; they're dirty. Enough, I need to get it together. This isn't me. I look like a beggar," Mira said to herself while looking in the mirror, which was away from the bed.

First, she got up and cleaned her room. Second, she used a homemade mask. Third, she took a long refreshing bath. Fourth, she made herself a green tea. Fifth, she did some makeup. Finally, she dressed herself.

"Mmh, I look cute. It's not perfect like them, but it's far better than what I was though. I should take some pics."

She started taking pictures, and after choosing her favorite ones, she uploaded them to social media. Then she started scrolling again.

While scrolling social media, she heard a scream of a boy. She was shocked because she lived here alone. She's a foreign student here. Her neighbor was an old lady who also lived alone.

"The old lady's son is in a coma after an accident; he never even made a movement of his eye. Her husband died long ago from cancer. So who might that be? Another neighbor of mine is a young woman with a baby girl. She actually is a teenage girl who got pregnant at a young age. There is no sign of men or boys. Also, no one is permitted to leave their house during the pandemic. Is the lady attacked by robbers? Or is it a guest? At this moment, a guest is the least likely scenario. What should I do now? Should I go there with a bat? If the lady is in danger, then is the lady's son awake from a coma? Or is it the girl's boyfriend who came here to finally see his child? Or is it a delivery man who just came here to deliver pizza or any groceries? If not, maybe it's a police patrol patrolling the area and saw a thief. If it's a thief, he should be in my home because I feel like someone is watching me; if that's so, he must be hearing me too. Ahh...

"No, think positive. Why on earth would he come here? I am a student who barely earns anything. Ninety percent of my fees and expenses are covered by the Randolf family. My parents worked for them as bodyguards, but in a mission both of them died. After their death, I have been living here. When I was young, I lived in an orphanage. I got this apartment when I was 18. It's not the best apartment. It's just a room with a washroom and a cupboard. The kitchen side I made it by myself. Talking of which, the cupboard seems small. It's like I am living in charity already, so which fool would steal here? It's like stealing from a beggar. Stealing from me is nothing but foolishness."

If not, who is that?"
