Hanging up you drop your phone. You stare at it, ''the hell '' you thought. You genuinely hoped that this was some sick joke someone was playing on you and not a damn serial killer. If this was a joke they taking this too far.
Looking over to your window, you scanned the glass up and down for anything out of place. Your nose filled with an awful burning smell as you glanced at your windows.
You quickly stopped gazing and turned around. The pan was on fire.
''Shit, shit, shit! '' blurting out, you raced to the stove, rushing over pillows and furniture.
You quickly turn off the gas and grab an oven mitt. Putting it on, you grab the pan and toss it in the sink. Water splashes as the pan drops next to other dishes. You then quickly turn the sink knob on and run some warm water over everything. You rub your forehead as you watch the steam rise from the pan full of burnt kernels.
''Shit.''
At this point, you didn't even want to watch anything anymore your mood was absolutely ruined. Some freak messed with your mind and now you got some fucked up burnt popcorn. You put your hand on your hip and shook your head as you slowly turned off the faucet. You tap your acrylics on the metal frame of the sink figuring out what to do.
As you tap your nails your phone rings again. You look over to see who it was, it was an unknown caller again. Although it said unknown you had a really strong feeling that it was that man again. You didn't want to pick up. You debated a bit until you finally gave in. You huff in annoyance and walk over to the couch. You snatch your phone up and answer the call.
''What'' you grunted out.
He asked softly, "I told you not to hang up on me." ''And I told you not to call this number again'' you rasped. The man chuckled again which irritated you. ''Too cute'' he said lightly.
''What do you want?'' you ask. ''To talk'' was all he said. ''They got 900 other numbers for that.'' He hummed, ''Yes that is true but, why do that when I have you?'' he asks. You scoff, 'you just don't give up' you thought. You grab the dirty pan and threw it in the trash can. 'I can buy a new one'. You switch the phone to the left side of your ear. ''Messed up your pan?'' he asked. Slamming it down, ''You need to stop before I call the cops on your ass''
''I wanna play a game with you'' he says. ''Let's play Runner'' you say. ''Runner?'' he replied in a confused tone. ''Yeah, you run off somewhere and leave me alone'' you replied sarcastically. ''Funny'' the man said in a grave manner. ''But no'' he says. "I wanna play a different one, a fun one. I think you'll like it''
You arch your brow, ''What is it you freak'', you mumble.
"Hide and seek. I'm sure you know how it goes. You find me, then I find you''. You sigh in annoyance. "Oh come on, it'll be fun" he begged. ''What happens when you don't find me?'' you asked leaning against the counter. ''If'' he emphasized making you mumble something. ''If I don't find you then I leave. I'll never call you again. You can forget about me. Simple'' he says as if it's that simple. You dramatically roll your eyes, ''No just go away ''
''You can bring a weapon if it makes you feel any better'' he says invitingly. ''Still no'' you say. ''I'm not asking this time, you're gonna play '' his voice was stern. ''Oh really?'' you say with a laugh hidden. ''Yeah,'' he says. ''If not then...'' he trails off.
''Yn?'', a voice plays in. You squint, ''Who's...who's that?'' you ask. ''Oh y/n, don't tell me you don't recognize your own sister'' he asked sympathetically.
You stood there pissed, ''You're not fucking funny'' you spat. ''I'll kill her, right now and end the game early'' he said. ''y/n please'' she groaned. His glove-covered fingers nab her skin. ''Maybe I should just kill you'' he jibes while squishing her face. Aaliyah shook her head no. ''No?'' he frowns. ''Well y/n doesn't seem to care''
''Fine'' you shout in anger. ''I'll play your stupid game, just leave my sister out of it''
The man hummed finally satisfied, "Of course y/n'', the man let out a quiet chuckle, ''That wasn't so hard was it?''
"You're sick'' was all you said.
As he laughed, you could feel your skin crawl, ''Come find me, y/n'' he says.
And with that the phone ended with a click.
