Echoes Before It Happens - Part 7 : Zaiyen’s Diary

 📓 Echoes Before It Happens: Zaiyen’s Diary  

🗓️ Part 7: The Diary That Started Writing Itself  

✍️ By Zaiyen


I always kept a diary.  

It started as a habit.  

Then a pattern.  

Then… a warning system.


But one day, something strange happened.


I woke up.  

Opened the diary to write —  

And a new page was already filled in.


In **my handwriting**.  

But I hadn’t written it.


---


The page read:


> “Dark road.  

> One light flickers.  

> A man in a white shirt waits —  

> but not for long.”  

>  

> — 3:42 AM


I froze.  

I touched the ink.  

It was dry.


I hadn’t even opened the diary the night before.


Was I sleepwriting?  

Or was it something else?


---


That night, I stayed up.  

I locked the diary in my drawer.


But the next morning —  

it happened again.


A new page.  

New writing.  

More specific.


> “This time, it’s not a stranger.  

> Watch the call that comes at 9:06.”


---


I couldn’t ignore it anymore.


The diary wasn’t just a place to write thoughts.  

It had become something else.


A **window**.  

Or worse — a **door**.


I started following the clues it gave.  

Most didn’t make sense.  

Some did… later.


And a few?  

They still haunt me.


Because I couldn’t stop them.


And maybe…  

**I was never meant to.**

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
