The Exact Same Day

It was the exact day a year earlier that Thomas's little brother Aiden had gone missing. Thomas had planned a reunion on the fourth of November every year to celebrate the life of his younger brother who had gone missing on this day. It was a sad occasion and everyone who had come had at some point started crying. Most everyone made a speech, some longer then others.

When everyone had left, his mom had started to cry on the couch. “Can you make us some tea, honey,” she sniffed. Thomas made his way to the kitchen and put the kettle on the stove. He heard a knock on the door and went to answer it. But strangely enough, no one was there.

“Stupid Pranksters,” Thomas said under his breath and he served his mom and dad the tea. A couple minutes later he heard a knock on the door again. He opened it and again no one was there. He was really annoyed by the whole situation and went back to the living room with his mom and dad who were setting up Aiden’s favorite movie.

By the end of the movie Thomas heard another knock on the door. He ignored it first, but then he heard another knock at the door. He was really fed up with this prank but he decided to play along with it anyway.

Sure enough no one was there. But as soon as he closed the door it was knocked on again. “Come outside,” said a distorted voice. “No,” said Thomas. The voice laughed, “Why not? Your brother did.”
