[unknown]: hey, would you like
to be friends? :)

[me]: Who is this?
[unknown]: oh, hello! I didn't think
you'd actually respond. :(
[me]: Answer my question.
[unknown]: My name is
Kang Haerin. ^•.•^
[me]: I don't know anyone
with this name, who are you?
[unknown]: Ah, yes. I was dared to
text a random Korean number that was
given to me by one of my friends.
Completely coincidental, I promise.
[unknown]: I am very sorry for the inconvenience by the way. 😕
[me]: I see...
[unknown]: But, to make it up to you,
do you think we can try and be
friends? Or online friends of
some sort? 🤓
[me]: You're a complete stranger,
I don't think we can be friends.
I'm sorry.
[unknown]: I know, but wouldn't
you like to try to get to know me?
Even if it's just for a couple of minutes!
[unknown]: You can ditch right after,
if it doesn't change your mind. :)

I stared at the text, my very rational self was yelling at me to not consider it at all, that for the sake of my own freaking safety to just leave the person on seen and block their number.
But, my very kind self was telling me to not be so hard on this person, the persons intentions weren't bad. If anything, this person speaks with a lot of formality.
Which could mean....
What if this person is some random old man that wants to scam me?! Or even worse, wants nudes!
But, what kind of old man would be making bets with his friends? Wouldn't he be a little too old for that?
Much less, what old man would be using all those random smiley faces, cat looking things, and emojis in that manner?
I let out a sigh knowing exactly what I was about to get myself in to, what could be so wrong in giving this stranger a little bit of trust? They don't seem so bad after all, he or she seems nice.
After all, I do need to get to know them.

[me]: Okay, but you will have to
answer my questions.
All of them!
[unknown]: Yay! That's fine,
just throw away! ☺️
[me]: How old are you?
[unknown]: I'm 19, turning 20
in a few weeks. What about you?
How old are you? Also, what's your
name? :D
[me]: This is not about me!
At least not yet.
