Chapter 5

"I can't forget that number, it's exactly the same as our home landline number."

I looked at the old landline phone on the wooden cabinet, several of its buttons already broken.

Mom and dad had wanted to throw it away long ago, but only my sister insisted on keeping it.

"If anyone dares to touch this phone again, I'll kill myself right away!"

My sister had become hysterical many times over this old phone, and our parents could only give in.

I never understood why she was like this, but now I know. Maybe she had been waiting for this day all along.

"If I'm not mistaken, after I make this call, I can change everything."

My sister's hands trembled as she picked up the phone and dialed a number.

"Hello, the situation is urgent now, you must do as I say!"

My sister's tone was unprecedentedly serious.

"A passerby is about to rush over, hold onto your phone tightly!"

"Don't ask! Just do it!"

I watched my sister's actions from the side, not daring to breathe.

My sister still looked solemn.

"Good, now hold onto your phone, don't hang up."

"What I'm about to say next is crucial, you must..."

Before she could finish, my sister stopped and cursed:

"Idiot!"

I asked her what happened.

My sister told me that her past self didn't believe her and hung up the phone.

My sister, who was angry just now, suddenly closed her eyes, as if lost in memories.

The next moment, my sister suddenly looked up at me, excitedly grabbing my shoulders.

I was startled by my sister's behavior.

"It changed, it really changed!" my sister said excitedly.

"What happened?"

"Because the phone wasn't knocked into the puddle by the passerby 5 years ago, I called dad."

"He said the car had stalled and he couldn't pick me up, so I didn't wait any longer and went home with a classmate instead."

My sister rarely showed a relaxed smile.

"Is that so! Then everything afterward changed too, right?"

After hearing my question, my sister closed her eyes again, lost in memories.

When she opened her eyes again, the smile on her face had completely disappeared.
