The Awakening 👀
It was past midnight. The house was silent, except for the soft hum of the fridge. I was sitting at my desk when I noticed the calculator on the corner. At first, it was normal. But then, the screen blinked strangely, like it was alive.
The numbers changed on their own: “9… 9… 9…” My heart pounded. I leaned closer, and I heard a faint scratching, like nails on the table.
Suddenly, the calculator slid toward me. Not rolling, not falling — moving on its own. I scrambled back, knocking over a chair.
A whisper came behind me: “You can’t leave.”
I spun around. Nothing. But when I looked back… the calculator was closer. Something had awakened. And it was watching.
