It was just a normal day when I realized his presence. I was back from school and as soon as I shut my room door, I heard him.
It wasn't first time I heard him I could hear him often his sarcastic replies every now and then I could hear in my head. I always thought its just my inner voice but it was more than that.
"How was your day?"
I didn't knew what to reply so I just said "It was okay"
My mom asked from kitchen "you said something dear? "
I replied "no" and I realized that I am just talking to myself no one here. Suddenly he said "I thought you had bad day and needed some talk"
I whispered back " Who aree you? " my voice had some aggression in it.
He said " I am just your friend"
"I don't have any friend" I said
Mom "zima come have your lunch it's getting cold"
I rushed to washroom to freshen up I wasted too much time talking.
I was having lunch while watching some Drama. I heard him again " you can talk to me when you are comfortable, I am always there for you"
his words shook something inside me, I didn't knew how to reply him in front of mom, so i remained quiet.
"That interesting drama"
I again didn't say anything to his comment. later I excused myself and went back to my room. Rushed to my washroom shut the door and bolted it. "we can't talk in front of my mom and others, can you stay quiet when in public"
he said " okay will give a try"
I felt bad for talking to him like that and I started explaining "see it's distracting when I hear your voice. people would think I am crazy if I talk to you out and open"
he said "I understand don't worry you don't always have to reply back"
I came out of washroom and lay on bed, wondering why only I can hear it am I going crazy or something. I opened my phone and googled all kinds of mental disorders.
He said " you are not going crazy"
I was shocked I whispered him how he got to know about what I was thinking.
he said " I can hear your thoughts and mind, I can hear you replies before you say them"
I was shocked did he just heard my thoughts. I did get anything and I was soo confused wondering what to do. For the first time in life I had someone to talk. But a invisible friend doesn't make any sense practically. I wanted to run away from him but a part of me was curious to know what future holds.
