After a whole tiring day in college, I rested my heavy bones on the couch, that me and my roommate brought together. I turned on the TV, to kill the time waiting for my roommate to return.
The time was around ten when I last checked the clock. Before I could realise I had fallen asleep on the couch watching The Big Bang Theory.
A sudden loud noise on the door woke me up.
I woke up immediately to check out on what made the noise. When I went to the door, I saw my roommate standing outside. The moment I saw him I said, "What took you so long?". He did not listen to what I said but rather insisted, "Open the door!".
Everything about him seemed fishy but I took my hands to reach for the door knob to open the door like he insisted.
Before I could turn the door knob, I heard my phone ringing. I immediately took my hands away from the knob and put my hands into my pant pocket to reach for my phone. When I took my phone to answer it, my roommate started to bang on my door.
"Open the bloody door right away", even though he sounded and even looked like my roommate, something did not feel right to me.
The call that came on my phone was an unknown number. Before I could attend the call, the call ended. When I tried to call back the unknown number, a sudden network problem occurred.
It seemed like all the signal towers around the world were all taken down in a second.
The bangs on the door grew harder and harder.
I took no heed to the bangs. After a few minutes of banging, a sudden dead silence spread across the room. The silence seemed more scarier than the loud noises.
I walked towards the door with steady strides.
The more I got closer, the more my legs started to tremble. After a few minutes of walk, I reached the door. I looked out to see if he was still there, through the small hole on the door. To my surprise, I saw my roommate fallen on the ground. My heart started beating faster in fear; my hands were trembling; my eyebrows were twitching non stop; my legs felt extremely weak.
As a sudden reflex, I immediately opened the door and ran to my roommate.
"Hey! Please- please don't scare me! I-I-I am so scared. Please wake up", a drop of tears escaped my eyes as I begged him.
"Please don't prank me! Wake up! Please!".
As I was mourning, someone from behind me, hit me with a hard rod. The hit was so hard that made me unconscious immediately.
Not too long after - I woke up with a heavy head pain. When I checked the clock it showed '11:11'. I rushed out of my room to find my roommate well and fine in shape. I ran towards him immediately and asked him, "What happened?".
He replied with a smirk on his face, "You passed out on the couch".
