Echoes Before It Happens - Part 10: Zaiyen’s Diary

 📓 Echoes Before It Happens: Zaiyen’s Diary  

🗓️ Part 10: The Day I Dreamt of My Own Funeral  

✍️ By Zaiyen


Most of my visions were about **others**.  

Their accidents.  

Their last moments.  

Their fears.


But this time…  

it was about me.


---


It began in total silence.  

A crowd stood in white.  

I didn’t recognize many of them —  

but I knew the place.  

Our family’s old house.  

The one we lost long ago.


There was a framed photo in the center.  

My face.  

Smiling.


Dead.


---


People cried.  

Some whispered regrets.  

But one person…  

stood apart.


A girl I’d never seen before.


She looked straight at the photo — and said,  

> “He knew too much.  

> That’s why it happened.”


Then she turned —  

and looked **directly at me**.


Not at the photo.  

At **me** — watching the dream from the outside.


---


I woke up breathless.  

Sweating.  

And crying — but not out of fear.


It felt like a memory.


A future memory.


---


That day, I didn’t go anywhere.  

I didn’t speak to anyone.  

I stayed locked in my room, waiting for something —  

a sound, a sign, an ending.


But nothing came.


---


Was this a warning?  

Or a path I was already on?


Because if I could see others' endings before they happened —  

what happens when I see **mine**?

Unknown Mind: Viyan’s Diary – Part 1 : The Break That Built Me

They always saw me as “soft.” Quiet. Obedient. Always adjusting. My name is Viyan — And this is the moment everything changed. After we lost everything, My brother Devakumar and I left our town, carrying pain instead of luggage. It happened on a dusty afternoon... A crowded bus in an unfamiliar city. I took a seat, head down — like always. Then came Saran . He mocked me, loud enough for the entire bus. Laughter spread. My hands trembled. My lips froze. Everyone turned— waiting to see what the quiet boy would do. And then… something inside me snapped. I stood up. I didn’t yell. I didn’t cry. I just… spoke. That wasn’t just a reply. It was my rebirth . That bus ride didn’t break me — It built me. ✍️ And this is where Viyan’s story truly begins…

 📓 Echoes Before It Happens: Zaiyen’s Diary   🗓️ Part 20: The Diary Is Now Yours   ✍️ Final Entry by Zaiyen So this is where it ends… Or begins. I’m no longer trapped in the story.   I’m beyond it.   But the diary… it didn’t disappear.   It passed on. To you. Yes — **you**, reading this. --- This isn’t just my diary anymore.   It’s alive.   It finds those who are close to the edge.   The ones who feel like their dreams   are warnings. The ones who think their thoughts   aren’t their own. The ones who whisper things they’ve never heard —   but always knew. If you're reading this far…   you’ve already been chosen. --- The final page turned itself today. And it didn’t show words. It showed **your face**. A future version of you —   writing your story   with trembling hands and burning truth. --- Because here’s the twist   you never saw...

Unknown Mind: Viyan’s Diary – Part 6: Mirror of My Mind

My mind was full. Overflowing. Loud. Blank. Everything at once. Appa said, “It’ll pass… We’ve seen worse.” But it didn’t feel like it would. Until she came. Yalini didn’t ask me to smile. She didn’t bring chocolate or flowers. She brought a mirror . A small round one. From her bag. She handed it to me and said: “I want you to look into this… and tell me if you still see the same boy from the bus.” I didn’t speak. But I looked. And I saw him. The boy who shook on a bus. The boy who wrote pain into pages. But also… The boy who stood up. The boy who didn’t quit. The boy who was still here. Tears dropped. She didn’t wipe them. She just sat beside me and whispered, “This time, you’re not vanishing. You’re becoming.” That night, I wrote again. Not just in the diary. But on a small sticky note. I pasted it near my mirror. “I am still here. And I’m not done.” That was the first time I chose to fight. Not for survival. But for myself . 🖋️ — Viyan
