She turned stiffly to find Mekhi standing there. His face was shrouded in gloom and he held a cane.
The cane appeared sturdy, clearly recently soaked to prevent easy breakage. It was evidently meant for her.
Although trembling with fear, Sally summoned her courage and approached him. She reluctantly knelt before him with a forced smile.

Mekhi, whats going on? I have delicate skin so I cant bear beatings. Youve never laid a hand on me before. You are making me terrified.
Sally bit her lip, attempting to elicit sympathy.
He approached her and peered down coldly.
Answer my questions truthfully. If you dare to lie, Ill break your legs.
Her face drained of color, and she shook her head vigorously.
Ill tell you everything you wish to know, without lying.
Why did you choose to hide yourself tonight?
