Arjun sat in a room On one side—The agency.
On the other—A screen with Vikrant.
"This is not normal," Arjun said.
Arjun raised his hand."I want a third option."
Both replied "NO".
Arjun sighed."Okay… question."They nodded."Can I just go home?"
NO
"fair".Suddenly—The chair broke Arjun fell , hit the table , pressed a button accidentally .
Emergency lockdown activated doors sealed,lights flickered .
Everyone stared Arjun looked up.
"…this was not me."
No one believed him.The lady spoked slowly " It's confirmed"Arjun froze."WHAT is confirmed?"
"You are not unlucky…excuse me?"
"Your actions are being… guided.".Vikrant leaned forward "By something… or someone."
Arjun laughed nervously."Haha… nice joke."
No one laughed.The lights flickered again For a second—Everything froze.Arjun blinked."…hello?"A voice whispered—"You're finally noticing."
Arjun turned but no one was there,but someone was watching .
The world resumed, everyone moved again like nothing happened .Arjun stepped back "I Heard something"The lady frowned.
"What?" . Vikrant ' s smile widened "…interesting.".Arjun's heart raced"Someone is controlling my luck…"
SILENCE
Then a shadow moved ,right behind him no one else saw it ,Only him.The voice returned"Let's see how far you go…"
Arjun whispered—"…who are you?".No answer just silence And for the first time Arjun realised he wasn't unlucky ,He was being played .Arjun didn't sleep that night not because he was scared because every time he closed his eyes—
That voice echoed again."Let's see how far you go…""Not far," Arjun whispered. "I fall every 2 steps."
🤫 SILENCE
Then suddenly - " Correct"Arjun jumped out of his bed."WHO SAID THAT?!"
"ME"
"where are you?"
"EVERYWHERE"
"…that's very unhelpful."
"AND YOUR ROOM IS VERY MESSY"
Arjun looked around"Why are you judging my room?"
"I JUDGE EVERYTHING"
"Who are you?"A small glowing screen appeared in front of him .
[SYSTEM INITIALIZING…]
Arjun blinked "..No"
"Welcome, User Arjun," the voice said.
"No. I refuse."
"You have been selected."
"I reject selection."
"Rejection denied"
"…this is illegal."
