The Strange Voice

It was a sunny Friday afternoon. My classmate, Naina and I were walking home from school. We were chatting happily, talking about what we would be doing over the weekend.

I opened my mouth to say something when suddenly I heard a voice calling out my name. It was weird and squeaky, yet familiar. I turned around to see who it was, but saw no one. I asked Naina if she heard anything, but she said that she didn’t and that I was just going crazy. I shrugged and we continued walking. A while later, while we were talking, I heard the same voice, again. I asked Naina if she heard it, and this time, she nodded. We turned around, but again saw nobody.

We continued walking, feeling like something very fishy was going on. 5 minutes later, I heard the same voice calling out my name, again. This time, Naina and I spun around just in time to see someone disappear behind a bush. It wasn’t too far, just a couple of buildings away. We sprinted towards the bush, determined to catch whoever was behind this. When we reached, we got a huge surprise.

It was my little brother, pranking me the whole time! At first, I was too surprised to say anything. Then, Naina and I began laughing like crazy people. Well, wasn’t that a funny prank?!
