The narrative unfolds on a particularly cold day, marked by heavy snow and biting winds. The story centers around Kate, an employee at a supermarket who finds herself entangled in a dangerous situation. Despite the harsh weather, few customers visit the store, leading to a relaxed atmosphere among the staff. Kate's coworkers, Sarah and John, are related to the boss and often neglect their duties, leaving Kate to manage much of the work. Amidst this routine, Kate experiences an unusual premonition, symbolized by her twitching right eyelid, which she interprets as a sign of bad luck.
Kate awaits an important phone call throughout the day, growing increasingly anxious as time passes. Her unease escalates when she encounters a strange incident involving a piece of tissue paper stuck to her eye, startling both her and a customer named John. As the day progresses, Kate finishes her shift and heads home through a dark alley. Here, she is abducted by two menacing men who take her to an unknown location, where they interrogate her about a disc that her friend Caroline had entrusted to her. Initially, the men try to coerce information out of her with threats and intimidation, but Kate remains steadfast, refusing to divulge any details about the disc.
The situation turns dire when one of the kidnappers threatens to harm her physically, only to be interrupted by their boss. This man, appearing more composed yet equally intimidating, questions Kate before subjecting her to a terrifying ordeal, nearly drowning her to extract information. Despite this torment, Kate does not yield. She is later confined in a small, dark space, reflecting on her past and the challenges she has faced, including saving her brother from drowning as a child.
After what seems like an eternity, Kate wakes up in a luxurious bedroom, confused and disoriented. She is treated kindly by her captors, who provide her with food and care for her injuries. However, this change in treatment leaves her suspicious. Eventually, the kidnappers release her back into the alley where she was originally abducted, warning her not to reveal the location of the disc or face severe consequences. They also threaten her with the fate of her friend Caroline, implying that she met a grim end.
Upon returning home, Kate experiences a brief period of relief but is soon confronted with another crisis when her sister calls to inform her that their father is gravely ill. Before leaving for home, Kate encounters John from the supermarket, who provides her with money to assist with her journey. This gesture of kindness stands in stark contrast to the perilous events she has just endured, highlighting the unpredictability of life and the value of human connections during times of adversity.
