Private Number Calling - Part 3

Hey all,

This is where it all comes to..............


I could not understand the situation myself, so when my roommate asked me what happened all I could give him was a blank faced “I don’t know”
My roommate panicked and asked me “We should call the police and report this, shouldn’t we? “
                        That’s when I realized the dilemma of the position that I was stuck in. I couldn’t possibly call the police because if I do I will have to explain to them about the money I found and the mobile phone and I couldn’t explain it even if I wanted to.  So I decided it’s better to take care of this myself.
            “Let’s not panic, we can take care of this ourselves, let’s see if anything has been stolen” I assured him and also calming myself
            Nothing was missing so the first thing we had to do was to sort everything out and bring the house back to some normality.
“Nothing has gone missing, so I guess whoever did this must have made a mistake “exclaimed my roommate. But I knew that this was no mistake. Whoever did this is after me and they are looking for the money.
So I go to bed still pondering about the crazy day I just had, even wondering whether I should move to a different locality just to be safe. But I knew I should probably get some sleep and let my brain do the thinking with no disturbances .
            Next morning I decided to start early for the office to make up for being late the previous day. On my way to work, I noticed that whichever turn I took, a black SUV seemed to take the exact same turns. So I went around the block a couple of times just to check and then I was sure that they were following me.
A full speed chase ensued and all my life I had never driven my bike like I did that day. I sped past every red light to put some distance between me and the goons who were chasing me. I skid past many alleyways that normally were too dangerous for me to even consider taking and at last I ended up at the beach. Finally I had escaped from them.
I checked the phone when I felt a sudden vibration. There were 3 text messages unread and the first one read as follows
“Whoever you are, I am gonna find you and hurt you”
The second one read,    
“You have just stolen from the wrong people and you are gonna pay with your life”
Gripped by the sense of terror and panic that engulfed me I decided that this phone could only ruin my life and only way to escape it is to get rid of it . So I threw the phone on to the beach sand as far as I could and walked away without turning back. The phone touched the ground and rang. A smiley face now appeared on the screen with the words “Private Number Calling”.
When someone else like me, the next victim picks it up from the ground and answers “hello……………”




The end……or is it?? ??
