Today started like any other day, but deep down, I already felt uneasy. Life never seemed simple. Every choice I made felt like a test, and every little mistake stayed with me for days.
I got out of bed, rubbing my tired eyes. My mind was buzzing with all the things I had to do. But there was one thing more important than anything else today—a message I had to send.
I stared at my phone, my fingers frozen. "Should I really do this?" I whispered to myself. The words on the screen looked perfect, but somehow, my stomach twisted in worry.
Finally, with a shaky breath, I pressed send.
The moment it left my phone, a wave of dread washed over me. Did I send it to the right person? Was it too harsh? What if it backfired?
Hours went by. I tried to focus on small tasks, but my mind kept returning to that message. I knew I had made a mistake—but how big it was, I couldn't tell.
As night fell, my phone buzzed. I froze. My heart pounded as I slowly picked it up.
The message preview made me stop breathing. My hand shook. The words on the screen were short, but they hit me like a storm:
"We need to talk. Now."
I stared at the message, my mind spinning. What had I done? Who wanted to talk to me? And what was about to happen next?
