With a lot of fear, yes

'Nonononono, I am so fucked, I am SO FUCKED, fuck fuck fuck, what do I do, what do I do??' Alex's mind raced as he darted around his room. He couldn't stop his hands from frantically shaking as he tried to find a course of action, but he just couldn't think straight. His body fought him as he tried to inch his way out of his room and into the hallway. 'Maybe if I just do what he says, he'll leave me alone afterwards.'

Alex forced his wobbly legs to regain their composure, so he could manage the walk up the stairs to the apartment right above him. The door to the landlord's apartment was the scariest thing he had ever seen, he'd never been inside so that meant anything could be in there. He put up a strong face, but behind it he was so nervous, everything was at stake.
