STORY STARTER

Your significant other frantically calls you. As the call continues, you notice the person on the other end of the line sounds just like them, but the way they speak is slightly off in such a way that it brings an unsettling feeling...
Don’t Call Back
“Hello?” I say, nonchallantly picking up the phone.
“When are you coming home to visit me?” The person on the other line asks. I feel a lump grow in my throat.
“Lynn?” I question. I immediately recognize her timid voice.
“Come visit me, honey. I miss you.”
“You know I cant…” I say defeatedly.
“But why? I have your birthday present waiting for you here.
“Your all the way in North Carolina.”
“Please??” Her irritation is growing. She is scaring me.
“Im hanging up now. I love you.”
“No please dont go… please!” She pleads. But I hang up the phone.
Lynn has been dead for 2 years.
