All Chapters of Was He Always Like This……?: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

The next morning, Ilyaan woke up feeling exhausted.It wasn’t because he hadn’t slept.It was because of what he had seen.The strange symbols on his bedroom wall.The whisper that had called his name.And most terrifying of all…The dark figure standing behind him in the mirror.⸻“Ilyaan, beta! Breakfast is ready!”His mother’s voice echoed from downstairs.For a moment, everything felt normal.Maybe it was all a nightmare.Maybe stress had finally gotten to him.He stood up and looked at the wall.Nothing.The symbols were gone.Not a single mark remained.A cold chill ran through his body.If it had been a dream, why did it feel so real?⸻At breakfast, nobody spoke much.His father kept reading the newspaper.His mother looked worried.His sister, Ayesha, couldn’t stop staring at him.Finally, she spoke.“Did you sleep well?”Ilyaan froze.Her voice sounded different.As if she already knew the answer.“No.”Ayesha lowered her eyes.“I knew it.”The spoon slipped from Ilyaan’s ha

The room fell silent.No one moved.No one breathed.The other Ilyaan stood in the doorway, staring directly into Ilyaan’s eyes.His smile was unnatural.Cold.Almost inhuman.⸻“You were never supposed to survive.”The words echoed inside Ilyaan’s head.“What do you mean?” he shouted.The duplicate tilted his head.For a moment, he looked disappointed.As if he had expected Ilyaan to already know the answer.⸻Ayesha grabbed the diary.“Stay away from him!”The duplicate laughed.A dry, hollow laugh.“You still think you can protect him?”His eyes shifted toward Ayesha.“Just like your grandfather tried.”Ayesha froze.“How do you know Grandpa?”The smile disappeared.For the first time, anger appeared on his face.“Because he stole him from us.”⸻A violent wind rushed through the room.Every photograph flew into the air.The diary’s pages turned wildly.And suddenly…A hidden photograph slipped out.One that neither of them had seen before.⸻The picture showed an old temple deep i

“Some doors lead to places. Others lead to truths that were never meant to be discovered.”🌙The black stone shattered.💥🖤💥Thousands of black fragments scattered across the room.A powerful shockwave burst through the house.The walls trembled.The windows exploded.And for a brief moment…Everything became silent.😨Too silent.💔Ilyaan stood frozen.The name still echoed inside his mind.Lyra.❤️The moment he spoke her name, something had changed.Not just in the room.Not just inside him.Something had changed in reality itself.🌑⸻🌙 The Voice In The DarknessA cold wind suddenly swept through the room.⚡The broken pieces of the black stone started floating into the air.Slowly.One by one.🖤Ayesha grabbed Ilyaan’s arm.“What’s happening?”Before he could answer—A voice echoed from somewhere far away.A female voice.Soft.Beautiful.And terrified.💔“Run…”😨The voice belonged to Lyra.Ilyaan knew it.Deep inside, he knew it.🌙Then the voice came again.This tim

“The dead are remembered. The forgotten are not. And sometimes, being forgotten is far worse.”🌙The giant golden eye hung above the city.👁️✨Its gaze covered the entire sky.The silver towers trembled.The glowing rivers became unstable.Even the air itself seemed afraid.💀All around them, people were running.Children cried.Families disappeared into narrow streets.Doors slammed shut.Fear spread through the city like wildfire.🔥But Ilyaan couldn’t move.His eyes remained locked on the giant eye.Because the moment it smiled…Something inside him responded.⚡A strange symbol appeared on his wrist.A silver mark.Burning.Glowing.Alive.👁️He screamed in pain.💔⸻🌙 Lyra’s FearLyra rushed toward him.Without thinking, she grabbed his hand.❤️The moment their skin touched—The pain vanished.⚡For one brief second…The world became silent.Neither spoke.Neither moved.🌙Both simply stared at each other.As though thousands of forgotten memories existed between them.?

“The truth doesn’t destroy you when you hear it. It destroys you when you finally believe it.”🌙The crystal exploded.💥⚡💥A wave of dark energy rushed through the library.Books flew from the shelves.Ancient pages burned in silver flames.The floor cracked beneath their feet.😱Ayesha fell to her knees.Lyra stumbled backward.And Ilyaan stood frozen.Unable to move.Unable to breathe.💔Only one sentence echoed inside his mind.Again.And again.And again.⚡“Welcome back, my son.”👑The King Beyond Memory had called him his son.💀⸻🌙 The Voice InsideThe darkness slowly disappeared.The library became silent.Too silent.🌑Ilyaan’s hands trembled.“No…”“That’s impossible.”💔But deep inside…Something was awakening.Something ancient.Something that had slept for years.⚡Suddenly—A sharp pain shot through his chest.💥He screamed.Falling to the floor.Memories flooded his mind.Thousands of them.Millions of them.👁️Lives he had never lived.Places he had never v
