Don't Answer When It Calls

There is a lane in the village that no one crosses after dark.No one shouts.No one calls out.And most importantly… no one says a name.Because the moment a name is spoken, something answers.When Aman ignores the warnings and calls out his friend's name as a joke, he hears it repeated right behind him.At first, it feels like a prank.Then it starts following him.Then it starts calling him.And when he finally answers… he disappears.But it doesn't stop there.The voice doesn't just repeat anymore.It learns.It changes.It becomes.Now it knows more names.More voices.More faces.And in a place where silence is the only protection…one mistake is enough.Because once it knows your name…it doesn't need to find you.It's already close.
