Hacked Reality

Script Vidéo

Gemini a dit It started with a push notification at 11:42 PM: Motion Detected: Living Room. I was alone, sitting on the couch. I opened the security app, my heart pounding, expecting the worst. The night-vision feed loaded from the bookshelf camera. I let out a shaky breath. It was just me. The camera had just picked up my own movement. On the screen, I watched my grainy, gray counterpart staring down at his phone. I raised my hand to wave at the lens, waiting for the usual two-second lag to catch up. My reflection on the screen didn't wave back. It just kept staring at its phone. My stomach dropped as I looked closer. The live timestamp in the corner wasn't moving. It was completely frozen at 11:30 PM. Someone had hacked my network and looped an old recording of me to blind the security system. As the realization hit me, a heavy floorboard creaked in the dark hallway right behind my head.
