It’s me. Employee A.
Lately, there’s been something strange happening during our online meetings.
Every now and then, the person on the other side of the camera looks… like someone else entirely.
Their voice, too—just slightly—sounds mechanical.
I kept telling myself it was nothing.
But during one meeting the other day, I knew for sure it wasn’t.
My screen was the only one acting up.
The video was distorted, and I couldn’t recognize a single face.
The emoji button I always use was warped, and the text looked like it had glitched into gibberish.
I grabbed my phone and snapped a picture in a hurry.
When I asked later, it turned out no one else had seen anything strange.
And yet… there was something even more unsettling.
Despite all the glitches, the red button that should have said “End Call” now just read “Call” —
as if it wasn’t meant to end anything, but to summon something.
It said only one word:
“call.”
It should have ended the meeting—but somehow, it felt like it was trying to summon something instead.
So I sat there, not touching it, until everyone else had left.
