If Josh were to discover that she had tampered with his computer, she would surely be killed by that beast.60 percent...
70 percent.
80 percent...
Just as the progress bar reached 90%, it suddenly froze.
At the same time, the sound of running water from the bathroom stopped.
In that instant, Clarissa's heart raced. Her entire body was drenched in a cold sweat, as if a bucket of cold water had beenpoured over her.
When she heard Josh's footsteps approaching the bathroom door, her heart sank in despair."It's over," she thought.
Just before the bathroom door was opened, the progress bar suddenly completed the remaining ten percent, and the dialoguebox disappeared from the screen.
