I thought this line was very cute: "...Josh is requesting a video chat with you". What? From my bathroom? Maybe he's out of toilet paper or something..." Glad she could find humor in a strange situation.

Looks like case of a doppleganger with a backpack so Annie did what any girl would do - RUN!

I was confused by this line: "...Without any warning the lights went out from the bathroom and I couldn't help but screaming from surprise. The light switch was outside the room so it must have been Josh. I started to cry..." I have never been in a bathroom where the lightswitch was on the outside - is this something new?

This line doesn't exactly say when the instument of death was actually opened: "...I sneaked out squeezing the penknife in my shaky hands...Before I could stop myself I had stabbed him with the penknife..." It still sounds like the knife was closed. Maybe you could clarify that a bit more.

This is an alarming statement: "...I have to die with Joshua, my best friend. I have to share his pain so we can stay friends forever. We've gotten through all the hard times and problems, why not this one too?..." I don't think murder/suicide is the greatest plan Annie - they have therapists for this kind of thing (or exorcists!) DON'T KILL YOURSELF!

All in all, I do like the simple clean way you closed the story with a nice good bye.

I liked this story; though short it caught my attention though I wish I knew who the evil josh was. Interesting concept though.

Great story! I always love a strage tale.
