“Yeah!, Isn't it unbelievable to get a brand-new phone at such a low cost, Hanna?” Mira squealed over the phone, excited.
“It might be a scam. I think you shouldn't buy tit, Mira” Hanna replied in concerm, worried about her friend.
“But the phone that I am currently using is useless. It's screen is broken and it's ancient. I wonder if I would ever get a phone this cheap.” Mira whined.
“Where and when are you going to meet the seller ?” Hanna asked.
“XYZ street” Mira replied and paused to check the time. “Okay it's time. I should go to the seller and get my phone. Bye” Mira said and hung up.Mira had recently moved out from her strict parent's house and had rented a room for herself. Mira didn't get along with her parents and kind of hated them.
She always wanted to become a singer, but her parents hated that thought. Hence, they stopped giving her allowance and asked her to move out if she wanted to chase her dreams.
That's how she ended up getting a job as a waitress in a café and settled in a studio apartment with her savings.
Recently, before moving out, her father had crushed her brand-new phone because he was upset with her. And Mira had no choice but to use her dull old phone for the moment.
She was frustrated at how slow her phone was and had been going through random websites for a new one.
She somehow came to a website where she found a very cheap phone which was in perfect condition. Without thinking much she called the seller who seemed like an old harmless man.
The man asked her to meet at XYZ street so that he could deliver it to her.
Without thinking much, poor Mira agreed with the man, but little did she knew about what was coming.
Soon she changed into her clothes and went to get the phone. As she arrived at the XYZ street, she called the seller, but to her utter surprise, he didn't pick up the phone.
As Mira felt disappointed and was about to leave, an old lady who looked like it was in her late 60s appeared. The old lady claimed herself as the wife of the seller. She explained how her husband was sick and therefore was unable to come.
The old lady had bought an old purse just big enough for a phone to fit. Slowly, she took out a phone and handed that to Mira. As Mira inspected the phone, she realized it was brand new.
Out of curiosity, she asked the old lady the reason for selling it, “You will understand eventually” she. Replied with a creepy smile which gave Mira chills.
Though, this was a red flag for Mira. She didn't run from there and instead took out the cash which she had saved and gave the old lady.
Soon Mira arrived home and called her friend with the new phone.
“Hello” said Mira “You won't believe it. The phone is as good as new” she continued, “Though the lady was kind of Cree-” a voice interrupted Mira, a similar voice. “Please help me” the voice said. Mira was surprised.
She checked her phone to if she had dialed the right number, but to her surprise, she hadn't called anyone. She threw the phone, shocked and scared.
But the sad voices of help became louder and louder. Within moments, the cry for help became angry demands for blood."Give me blood !" the angry demonic voices said. Suddenly, the voices stopped coming and Mira fainted out of terror.
When she opened her eyes, she saw the old lady smiling ear to ear. It didn't take Mira long to realize that her hands were tied, and she was trapped somewhere in the dark. She shouted at the lady to leave her and that if they didn't let Mira go, she would do a police complaint.
The old women laughed like a psychopath and shouted “You can come out dear, She is ready” Mira looked around her and with the corner of her eye she saw a black shadowiest figure behind her.
Mira had then already ripped the ropes that had been tying her, It seemed like the ropes weren't tied professionally.
When Mira looked back, the figured had disappeared. But Mira didn't have time for that, the old lady was already holding a knife, ready to attack her. “I need to get my husband back,” The lady shouted while running towards Mira, Of course, Mira, a 19-year-old healthy girl, overpowered an old lady.
Later, when the cops were called, they discovered that the lady's husband died a week ago.
The cops concluded that she was an old woman who lost her mind after her husband's death and sentenced her to a mental asylum.
But there were mysteries that neither Mira nor the cops could understand, Mira had talked to the husband over the call, but he was already dead, and the voice which asked for her blood was similar to the seller, the husband.
And it's just impossible for an old lady to carry a young lady and tie her. So, does it mean the dead husband came back?
