Chapter 1: The Message at 12:07 AM
The clock struck 12:07 AM.
Arjun's phone vibrated on the table.
He was half asleep, but the notification made his heart race.
Unknown Number:
"If you want to live, don't open your door tonight."
Arjun sat up instantly.
"Who sent this?" he whispered.
Outside his apartment, the hallway light flickered.
Then—
KNOCK. KNOCK.
Someone was at the door.
His heartbeat became louder.
He slowly walked toward the door and checked the peephole.
No one.
Just an empty hallway.
Suddenly another message arrived.
"Too late."
Arjun stepped back in fear.
Then he noticed something strange…
The door was slowly unlocking by itself.
