Chapter 2: Building Tension
A buzz of excitement coursed through the air as Sheryl, Serene, and Abigail hurriedly logged onto their respective social media accounts, their thumbs poised over the screen. The weight of anticipation hung heavy in the air, like the thick, humid fog that clung to the city. The trio exchanged anxious glances, their eyes darting back and forth from their screens to each other.
