Last night, around 2:17 AM, my phone suddenly vibrated.
I was half asleep, but I still checked it.
There was a message from some unknown number.
"Don't go to school tomorrow."
At first, I thought it was just a prank or something.
So I ignored it.
But then another message came right away:
"If you go… you won't come back."
That line felt weird.
Like… not normal.
I sat up a bit and typed:
"Who is this?"
The reply came instantly.
"I'm the one who watches."
Now I was a little uncomfortable.
But still, I tried to act normal and just slept.
Next morning, I was getting ready like usual.
Then my phone buzzed again.
Same number.
"You're wearing a blue shirt… and still thinking this is a joke."
I literally froze.
Slowly looked down…
Yeah… blue shirt.
At that moment, it didn't feel funny anymore.
My hands actually started shaking.
I typed:
"Okay… what do you want?"
Reply came:
"To save you."
That confused me even more.
"Then prove it," I wrote.
After a second, message came:
"Look behind you."
My heart started beating fast.
I slowly turned around…
Nothing.
Room was empty.
I felt a bit relieved.
Then again—
Ping.
"Too slow."
That message gave me chills.
At night, I couldn't sleep properly.
I kept thinking about it.
Then again, a message came:
"Tomorrow, 10:32 AM… something bad will happen."
This time, I didn't take it lightly.
I decided not to go to school.
Next day, at exactly 10:32 AM, I checked my phone.
There was news.
A school bus accident.
Same time.
Same place.
I just stared at the screen.
My mind went blank.
"This is real…"
I quickly typed:
"Who are you??"
This time reply was different.
"I am you."
I didn't understand.
Then another message:
"From the future."
That line hit me hard.
Like… what if it's true?
I asked:
"Then tell me what happens next?"
There was a long pause.
Then message came:
"Tonight… don't open the door at 11:11 PM."
Whole day I was just waiting for that time.
I was scared but also confused.
Finally…
11:11 PM.
Knock… knock…
Someone was at the door.
My phone lit up:
"DON'T OPEN IT."
The knocking got louder.
Then a voice came:
"Aarav… open the door…"
It sounded like my mom.
I got nervous.
"Maa?" I said softly.
Phone vibrated again:
"It's not her."
But the voice again:
"Aarav… please open…"
Now I was stuck.
My heart was racing.
What if it really was her?
I couldn't think properly.
Without thinking much…
I opened the door.
Outside…
No one.
Just darkness.
Complete silence.
I stepped back slowly.
"Wha… what was that…"
Suddenly, my phone fell from my hand.
Screen turned on by itself.
A message was typing…
"You failed again."
My chest felt heavy.
I picked up the phone.
And then I noticed something…
The sender name…
It changed.
It was not "Unknown Number" anymore.
It was…
My name.
Another message came:
"I tried to save you…"
I couldn't even move.
Then the last message appeared:
"Now… you will become me."
I just stood there…
Holding my phone…
And then suddenly…
A new call started dialing from my phone…
To another unknown number.
🎧 End
Maybe…
some messages are not jokes…
Maybe…
they are warnings…
And maybe…
sometimes…
you are already too late.
