Missed me ?

Nicole takes a deep breath picking up the phone,
“It’s been 15 years” she thinks.
“It should be ok to call them, now” she says, aloud.

She dials the number that her fingers have been itching to call all these years.

The dial tone rings multiple times, when the voice recorder comes on.

“Hi this is Ann and Maurice, sorry for missing your call, we will call you back as soon as possible,”
Nicole sighs, but smiles widely.

“There’s still hope, all these years and they still have the same number and voice message.”
She thinks, happily.

Dialing the phone number that symbolizes home for her, she finally hears the phone being picked up on the 3rd ring.

“Mom, Dad it’s me Nicole, I’ve missed you guys so much she shrieks excitedly. “I can’t wait to se-”

“Nicole…Nicole…Nicole…time is running out, my dear” says an all too familiar sinister voice.

You drop the phone screaming, all color draining from your face.
