Lover
THE STRANGER
Introduction: The night was quiet. Too quiet.
You were scrolling through your phone, half-asleep, when a new message lit up your screen.
Not from a friend. Not from a saved contact.
An unknown number.
And that’s how it began—
a conversation you should’ve ignored,
but couldn’t.
Because sometimes, danger doesn’t knock on your door.
It texts you first.
unknown
You shouldn't be out this late
unknown
Let's just say...... I have been watching you
unknown
If I wanted to hurt you. I already would have.
unknown
From the people you think you can trust
Minni
And I should trust you instead?
unknown
You already do . That's why you are still replying.
unknown
Someone who ruins everything he touches.
But I can't stay away from you

[Minni walk to the window. The streetlight flicker. A black car is parked across the road. The drivers face is hidden in shadows.]
Minni

unknown
Exactly. You are not paranoid. They are watching you.
Minni
Then who are you? Another stalker?
unknown
(pauses) : No I am the only reason they haven't touched you yet.
Minni
Why should I believe you?
unknown
Because I know your name (voice drops slowly) Minni
Minni

unknown
I know more than your name
And soon ..... you'll know me too.
