Episode 1
It was the biggest mistake of my life and the last one as well……………………….
Two days ago.
It was a long day at office and Penny was super tired. It was a Monday
night and many of you, might relate. Almost everyone hates Mondays.
Boss’s nagging, meeting deadlines and colleagues’ cold shoulders. She
was an editor’s apprentice in a newspaper company and got often
maltreated by others.
It was a rainy night and the rain’s pitter patter was the only sound
along the occasional thunder in her small apartment consisting of two
rooms. Penny was unable to fall asleep and just listened to the sound
of rain. Trying her best to fall asleep but she couldn’t. She felt
uneasy. Her room was completely dark.
“Pitter, patter, pitter, patter.” The sound of rain.
Penny kept on looking at her dark surroundings and thought, “Ugh, Why
can’t I sleep? I’ll be shouted at again by my boss in the morning if I
get late. Try to sleep Penny. Try to sleep.”
She tried to sleep but couldn’t and finally gave up. She walked
towards her computer and switched it on.
“Let’s watch some funny videos.” She said to herself. She watched a
few videos until she felt sleepy. She looked at the time on her
computer. It was 1 am and decided to sleep.
“Ping.” She had just received a popup on her computer.
“CLICK ON THIS LINK. YOU HAVE ABOUT 60 SECS TILL THIS LINK DISAPPEARS
FROM YOUR SCREEN.”
Penny looks at her screen and thinks, “Just another stupid popup. I
must block these cookies from my computer.”
She blocks the cookies and checks the pop-up. It’s gone.
“Ping.” It is the same popup again but this time with a slight change.
“CLICK ON THIS LINK. YOU HAVE 60 SECS TILL THIS LINK DISAPPEARS FROM
YOUR SCREEN, TODAY.”
Penny gets annoyed and shuts off her computer after dismissing the pop-up.
She goes back to her bed and falls asleep.
