It was 2 am, and he was consistently looking at the ceiling of his new room. He stood up and took a glass of water from his side table then started looking outside from the window. There was silence and darkness. But he wasn't concerned about anything. The only thing which was roaming in his mind was the fight between his mother and father and then his mother took him and shifted to this new house. This new place seemed uncomfortable to him he wasn't sleepy at all.
He got no friends in this new area, so this seventeen years old guy was feeling so alone. He came back to his bed and started using his phone. There is no message from anyone. He started googling some fun activities to do alone, there was a site named "play hide and seek alone". "it sounds interesting", he said and then opened the site. There were some steps that he needed to follow and he started taking an interest. The rules of the game were
Rule 1: Turn all the lights off and lock your room
Rule 2: Don't open the lock until 3:33 am… no matter what happens
Rule 3: Sit on the floor and lit up a candle
Rule 4: Turn the candle off with the help of your blood
Rule 5: Survive as long as you can!!!! Best of luck
He read the rules and laughed so hard that and decided to sleep instead of playing this game. But alas he wasn't sleepy at all he stood up locked his room and the lights were already off and sat on the floor and lit the candle up. He inserted the needle in his fingertip to get 1-2 drops of blood which were enough to blow the candle.
Alright, the candles were off, there was dark, horrible silence, but nothing happened he started sweating. Suddenly he heard something, it was the sound of the lock of the door someone was outside his room and trying to open the door but the door was locked and someone was constantly trying to unlock it. And sat silently and was not moving. Someone knocked on the door so hard and stood up with fear and asked in a shaking voice, "Who's there!"
"It's me Kevin", open the door. The sound was of his dad. He shouted "Dad" and ran towards the room to open it, all of sudden he remembered the 2nd rule. He started looking at the locked room. He yelled, "Dad, are you still there" this time there was no sound and he sighed relief. He went back to his bed and closed his eyes and started thinking about his father again. Meanwhile, he heard a sound, someone was outside and trying to open the door. He shouted, "Dad is that you?" someone replied, "yes it's me, my son I am missing you desperately and cannot live without you, please open this door and remove all the hurdles between us". And there was silence, Kevin replied, "Why did you leave my mom?" the sound replied in anger "just open the door or I will kill you!!" the sound was not of his father. He shouted, "no, no, no". This time there was no reply.
He was staring at the door when suddenly he heard a knock on the window and he didn't move. He looked at the time it was 3:30 am only three minutes were left. Someone was consistently knocking on the window and the door, he heard the voice of his mother, father, and even the crying sound of his younger brother who died years ago, but he didn't reply to any of them.
At 3:34 all the sounds stopped he turned all the lights on and opened the door there was no one outside but at the door, he found some scratches from a wild cat. And went downstairs and slept on the sofa. He was not afraid of anything but wanted to play that game again. While sleeping he thought that in the morning, he will meet more people of his age and make them friends and will ask them to play the game again and he will not let them read the rules. He was just curious that what will happen if we open the door.
