I had a phone call last week
4/28/05
 
I was just sitting at home like always and the phone rang.  It was 8:58pm, we get a lot of telemarketers calling, so if its unavailable I hardly answer them, but my Mom was out of town for work and when she called from the hotel it would sometimes say unknown caller.  When I picked up, it was like an echo and static kind of like talking into a can or something hallow.  I looked at the caller ID and it said unavailable with 8 zeros under it where the # usually shows.  I thought that was weird; when I said hello I could hear myself say hello and repeat everything I said clearly.  Finally a lady said Hello is Kristy there? That is me Kristy; I got chills it sounded exactly like my Grandmother who passed away exactly 3 years to the day, April 22nd.  So I said who's calling and she got real upset and said harshly, "This is fate and I need to talk to Kristy now!"  I freaked and paused for a few seconds and then in a low voice that I could barely make out I herd "your Grandma".  I hung up really fast and I wish that I didn't, but I think it was just a immediate reaction.  I called my boyfriend and we always mess around, but I yelled at him and said, Are you messing with me b/c its not even funny, you swear to god you didn't call me?  I was shaking and I called my Mom and even my teenage brother who was at a party offered to come home which is rare.  My Grandma died at 8:06 in the morning of Monday April 22nd, 2002.  We were very close, I was by her side every minute growing up.  I just kept on thinking, is she lost, maybe she needed help and I just hung up on her.  Why did that person say this is Fate?  May be it was like a psychic calling, but I don't think it was from the feeling I felt.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story, Kristy August
