The day was dying down and finally it came to an end. It had been a rough day too and I was ready to pass out. Lying in my warm blankets, getting those half awake dreams.
I quickly came drifting back when my phone rudly awoken me. I sighed and sat up. I looked over at the bright red numbers of my clock to check the time.
"Eleven thirty!!! Jeeze, who needs me this bad." I grumbled as I werily stumbled out of bed.
When I answered my phone, I was immediatly chilled. This was because I stared at the battery that lay on the desk. What I had picked up was my old one, just today I bought a new cell. It was hard to get, considering the throngs of people in the stores, due to "Black Friday." I truly have no clue why I don't throw things like this out.
The voice sounded like a middle aged man. The tone of it was cold and raspy. It would make you think think that there were no heart behind it.
My body became ice as I slowly decended stiffly into a wooden chair. For a few seconds of scilence all that could be heard was static and heavy breathing. Then laughter. This laugh was so joyus. I couldn't have it, the nerve of some people!
I angrily began, "Ya know wh-," then it went dead. Just as dead as the person had sounded. I was startled and even more bewildered as to what had just happened. Now sitting in the scilence of the dark, quiet night I concentrated on my phone. The street lights that shimmered through the open slits of my blinds bounced off the black screen. Breathing angrily in disappointment, I threw my phone at the wall, it bounced off and landed back on the desk. Fortunatly the force had been unitentionally innocuious, leaving no punctures in the wall.
I sat there till I became cold and threw myself onto the bed. Hopelessly I laid there and forced myself to close my eyes. Hours went by that I was awake. I was too tiered to be obsessing over something that just couldn't be. Without realizing it I passed out. When I awoke it was bright. The sun was almost burning my eyes out. Still tiered from only sleeping twenty minutes I pulled myself out of bed.
As I walked to the door my alarm clock started playing a tune on it's radio. I whipped myself around and dizzily tripped back into the door, watching my clock. The numbers started rolling forward then everything stopped and went blank. Shakily I picked it up to observe it. Oddly enough the wire seemed to be cut. When I checked the wall for the other half, it wasn't even there. Now I knew whatever was going on couldn't be ignored. I needed to do something, I just didn't know where to start.
