The Email
The email he has received today is marked urgent. But it's from a friend who died two years ago.
With shaking hands, he closed the laptop, not bothering to shut it down. In panic, he quickly shoved the laptop down into his bag, and ignoring the surprised call of his classmates, he left the library.
How can a dead person send emails to people in the future? It's ridiculous. It's crazy. Dead men do not come back to the living world to send emails.
He should've burned the laptop, yes he should. No one ought to see anything they shouldn't see, no one should see that blasted email.
No one should ever know that HE was the one who murdered the 'friend' a year ago. It wasn't his fault! The other slipped down the stairs— not his fault. Never his.
As he rushed down the stairs, clutching his bag to his chest, his reflection in the mirror down the wall, 𝘨𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘥.
