"What for?" I can't get any reason for that guy needs my contact. It is impossible for him to have any feeling for me at the very first sight. Because for your information, I am not pretty or beautiful or the girl who has the charisma. I also don't believe the love at first sight, as it has never happened to me. "I don't know, he likes to make friends, he knows we are coming from the same country, maybe he just wants to make a new friend. Can I give it to him?"

As I have no reason to draw the line, so I say, "Sure," we are parting to our own ways and live our life. I know he will text me, but I have no idea that he will text me right after Billy asked for my consent.

Calvin : Hi!

Me : Hi

Calvin : My name is Calvin

Yeah, I know it's all written here. What should I say then? This is my first time, the other side texts me first. If I can see the motive for what he texts me, I can try my best to drag his intention into our conversation. But in his case, I have no clue. And I know in advance that it is impossible for him to like me, so I won't waste my time and my feeling, I'll ask him straightforwardly.

Me : Nice to know you, may I help you?

Calvin : I just want to get to know you. Do you mind if I ask your name?

What? Why does he want to get to know me? Why should you get to know me? The most thing I want to do now is asking James what to reply to him. I want him to be by my side and tells me which word should I type. I don't have enough nerve to read his message. I open the chat room between James and me, but I type nothing on it. I am afraid that by pressing the 'send' button, I am passing the line. I am worry that I can't hold myself back once I break through his boundary.

Me : Yeah, my name is Silience

Calvin : I heard you are Billy's friend

Me : Yeah

What should I say next?

Me : So, do you, right?

Calvin : Yeah, we've known each other for a long time. Uh, sorry but am I disturbing you?

I am walking now and have nothing to do, but it isn't a pleasant moment for me.

Me : Not at all 

Calvin : Which department are you in?

The conversation flows with the self-introduction which is carried in interview mode, with him as the interviewer. I am happy to have someone to fill the empty spot of James, I like that I have someone to talk to before I sleep, but I have no interest or curiosity in him. I am doing my best to give him a good response. I just can't do it better than him.

The next morning, his message is waiting for me.

Calvin : Good morning!

Up to this point, I can welcome him with a smile but not until the fourteenth day. He acts like we were getting together and telling what to do and not what to do, asks me to call him, just because he keeps asking me what to do and have I eat, every time we run out of the question.

Calvin : Hi, what are you doing?

Here we go again. Why should he bring this conversation up and why should I reply to him, when we have nothing to say and have nothing between us? Why? If he thinks he is that handsome and I may bite his lure, he gets me wrong. His look is nothing if I have no interest in him. And the most important thing is, I am not into the handsome guy, I am more into the good-looking guy which is the guy with the average-below average's face, add with a good vibe and good manner (I will be glad if he is a sportsman). Why do I like that kind of look? I don't know, is it because all the guys around me are the handsome ones and I am sick of it? Maybe__just kidding!
