The Mysterious Call

The phone started to ring, yet no one was on the other line.
It was an unknown number and I didn’t dare pick up the call.
My curiosity however was getting the best of me, who could possibly be on the other line?

I debated answering it and after a few minutes, I hesitantly picked it up.
All I could hear on the other line was static and faint breathing.
Who could be calling me?

My mind started racing and all sorts of thoughts rushed into my head.
Maybe it was a prank caller? Or perhaps something far more sinister?

The possibilities of who it could be started to take over my thoughts and all I could do was to wait until they said something.
Until finally after a few minutes of heavy silence, I heard a faint whisper of a voice.
I couldn’t quite make out the words they said, yet the mysterious call still sent a chill down my spine.
I put the phone down, thinking of all the questions left unanswered.

The caller may remain a mystery but I knew that it won’t be the last call.
