The Number(short story)
My sister is dead. I was trying to read a book to distract myself from thinking about her. No luck so far.
My phone was beside the book I was reading and 1 single text message appeared on the lock screen. It was from my Sister. How can she be….? Another message appeared from her.
I pick up my phone and read the 2 messages.
“Hi.”
“I know where you live.”
What? I go to the contact information and I was about to click block the number when another message appeared saying:
“There is no point blocking me. I will still be able to text you.”
“Who are you?” I replied.
“Your sister of course.”
I blocked the number anyway. I don’t care what she says. This person isn’t my sister. My sister, Sophie, would never send a random message like that. Besides, how did she know that I was going to….?
“I can read your mind.” Says another text message that appeared.
Is something wrong with my phone?
“There is nothing wrong with your phone.”
I searched through the contact information looking for the report button, or anything that would stop whoever this is from messaging me when:
“If you dare report me I will find you. I know where you live. I’m your sister. I’m Sophie's twin.”
Sophie never had a twin.
“She did. You were never told. Sophie was.”
