The Answer Sheet That Came Back After 5 Years

Ritu: Kavya… are you home?

Kavya: Yeah, why?

Ritu: I just got a parcel… no sender.

Kavya: What’s inside?

Ritu: My 12th pre-board mathematics answer sheet

Kavya: That’s not possible.

Ritu: It has 32/100 on top… but there’s a new note.

Kavya: What note?

Ritu: “Check Question 7 again.”

Kavya: This is creepy.

Ritu: It’s that trigonometry problem

Kavya: The one you left?

Ritu: Yes… but there’s new red ink:
“Wrong method. Try again tonight.”

Kavya: Nope. I don’t like this.

Ritu: I just got a message… unknown number.

Kavya: Don’t open it!

Ritu: It’s my answer sheet… but blank.

Kavya: WHAT?

Ritu: Message says:
“Solve it before midnight… or your marks stay.”

Kavya: Ignore it.

Ritu: I can’t… it just changed to 28/100

Kavya: That’s impossible.

Ritu: I’m opening my math guide book

Kavya: Hurry.

Ritu: I think I got the answer…

Kavya: What is it?

Ritu: 1.

Kavya: Check again.

Ritu: Oh no… wrong.

Kavya: Ritu…

Ritu: It’s 21/100 now.

Kavya: STOP.

Ritu: Phone buzzing again.

Kavya: Don’t read it!

Ritu: “Last chance.”

Kavya: This isn’t about math.

Ritu: Then what?

Kavya: That wish you made… remember?

Ritu: “…I’d fix everything.”

Kavya: Maybe something heard it.

Ritu: The sheet just changed again…

Kavya: To what?

Ritu: It’s blank.

Kavya: Blank??

Ritu: One line:
“Final Question.”

Kavya: Ritu…

Ritu: “Who is standing behind you?”

Kavya: DON’T TURN—

Ritu: …………

Kavya: RITU??

Ritu (last seen typing…): It’s… me.
