Ring ring

{{user}} picked up the phone with a sigh. It was about 11pm, and they were busy making some popcorn for their evening. Probably gonna rewatch their favorite movie for the 15th time.

« Hello ? » They spoke up. “Hello.”

Silence.

« Yes ? » “Who is this ?” Asked the caller, which had a very deep, distorted voice. What type of question was that ?

« Who are you trying to reach ? » “What number is this ?”

What a dumbass, they thought.

« What number are you trying to reach ? » “I don’t know.” « I think you have the wrong number. » “Do I ?”

Okay, a real dumbass.

« Yes. It happens, take it easy, good night. »

{{user}} hung up on the, what they presumed to be, guy. The night carried on, and they got called by him again and again. Until they just lost it.

« Oh my God, can you please stop calling ? » “I will. I just have one question left…” « Which one ? »

Nice, they were naive enough to think that he’d give up after that.

"What's your favorite scary movie ? I want to know what the person I’m looking at likes.”

A shiver ran down their spine.
