Echoes Before It Happens - Part 19: Zaiyen’s Diary

 📓 Echoes Before It Happens: Zaiyen’s Diary  

🗓️ Part 19: The Truth I Choose  

✍️ By Zaiyen


The room wasn’t a room anymore.  

It felt like a **dimension made of pages**.  

Floating memories.  

Unwritten futures.  

Flickering pieces of timelines  

that never fully existed…  

until now.


And in front of me,  

the Third Diary glowed.  

Alive.


A choice pulsed on its final page:


> “Choose the truth you want to live.  

> Only one will remain.  

> The rest will be erased — including you.”


---


I looked at Ameya.


She wasn’t herself anymore.  

Or maybe… she was something **more**.


The Author was inside her,  

or maybe she *was* the Author all along.


> “Write the ending, Zaiyen,” she said.  

> “Before someone else writes it for you.”


But I was scared.  

What if I chose wrong?


What if choosing a reality  

means killing the others?


What if I chose… a lie?


---


Then I realized something.


The diary never asked me to choose  

**the truth**.


It asked me to choose  

**my** truth.


So I opened the final page.  

Took the pen.  

And I wrote:


> “I am not a story.  

> I am the storyteller.”


---


Everything stopped.


The pages froze in midair.  

The Third Diary sealed shut.  

Ameya… returned to herself.


The ink that once controlled me —  

it turned to light  

and entered my chest.


I felt something shift.


I wasn't just reading fate anymore.


I was **rewriting it**.


---


The last message appeared:


> “You broke the loop.  

> Now… create.”

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
