A Call From Hell 📳
Little did she know that one argument with a church boy would mean much trouble for her. The intriguing story of a young girl's encounter with the dark world.
"""
It was a sunny afternoon and I had just returned from work, my boss had
earlier noticed my unhappy mood that morning had watched me for a few working hours. When he saw I made no positive changes, he engaged me in a brief discussion and requested that I went home to sort out whatever issues I had. He stated that I was in fact his most hardworking, proficient and diligent staff, so he would not stand the risk of me working from my left frame of mind, this he said in a rather sarcastic tone.
I hurriedly took a lift down to the last floor as my strength was too small to take me through the stairs, I got into my car and drove off. It was a rough ride and in what seemed like ten minutes, I was home, searched for my house key in quite a rush and placed it on the key hole only to discover that the door wasn’t locked after all, I shook my head in disbelief as I opened the door to go in.
It was dark and stuffy inside, the power had gone out due to a heavy rain that fell the previous evening, for my comfort I decided to open the windows and raise curtains to allow light penetrate through the openings, and to let in fresh air.
I helped myself to a glass of cold juice and soon I felt better. Not long after, my head began to ache with my heart racing uncontrollably. I had gone through a lot of stress in the past few days and really needed to rest, I settled on the couch for a few minutes looking confused. On my way home I had stopped by a lab to confirm there was nothing wrong and the test results confirmed it. I had a brief session with the consultant who told I needed a lot of rest. In this might, I entered into the bathroom to have a cold bath and then get a good sleep after wards.
As I put on the shower to wash, the water that flowed through the tap to my body was like a hot chemical which gave me excruciating pain. Out of fear I hastened out of the bathroom, toweled myself in a rush and examined my skin, surprisingly there were neither patches nor injuries just the feeling of internal pain. I sat on the floor to nurse my pain but was soon distracted by a loud crash from the kitchen, I hurriedly got up to check what it was, but an accompanying sound from the bathroom followed, it was the sound of running water, I suddenly felt the strong presence of someone standing behind me, I turned to see who it was but there was no one there. Immediately fear gripped my heart. It had become windy outside and there was still silence in the house. A few seconds later the doorbell rang, as I slowly walked towards it, another door closed from behind which was followed by the footsteps of so many people rushing into the house. I had watched many movies about haunted homes in the past and mine didn't seem to be an exception. On second thought, it could have been my imagination playing tricks on me. I took a deep breath and tried very hard to stay calm. My phone started ringing...
