(100-word flash fiction)
The phone rang at the oddest hours, at night when she was asleep.
It was always a child, whispering plaintively, sometimes frantically, but in a strange language. She was sure it was a prank, someone mimicking a child's voice to pester her. The next time, however, an adult shout was heard followed by the sound of a slap and whimpering.
She decided to record the call. She had to wait for two months.
She then spent the rest of the night on Google Translate which translated, "Save me from these people. Help me find my parents. Please come rescue me."
