Once a popular it girl, Emma now leads a simple life as a creative advertising director. Her quiet routine is disrupted when she meets Noah, a mysterious businessman, through a dating app. Noah, the app's owner, is a young and famous entrepreneur. B...
The question I had asked Noah kept replaying in my mind. If we had met before, it would make everything much more meaningful. As I tried to piece together the clues about his past, I also wanted to get to know him on a deeper level. When I felt my phone buzz, I excitedly opened the incoming message.
Noah: "No. You've never met me, Emma. But you once knew someone who was a lot like me."
Reading this message only raised more questions in my mind. I had known someone like him... What did that mean? Who was he talking about? Was there someone in my past who resembled Noah? As I tried to find answers to these questions, another message from Noah came through.
Noah: "But let's not dwell on the past, Emma. Let me show you a little bit of my present."
When my phone buzzed again, I eagerly opened the photo notification. The picture showed a stunning cityscape view through the large windows of a sleek, modern office. The office was spacious and luxuriously decorated. On the desk, neatly arranged files and documents were visible. In the background, a giant world map hung on one wall of the high-ceilinged room. Every corner of the office seemed to reflect power and prestige.

Noah: "This is where I spend most of my days. It's the top floor of a building in the city center. Today's a busy one—got a meeting with some business partners from China later. After that, I'll be heading out of the country for a few days. Private jet's all set for tonight."
This message opened a window into Noah's life that I hadn't seen before. I knew he was deeply involved in the business world and had a vast network, but I hadn't imagined it to this extent. Private jets, international business partners, a huge office... This was a far cry from the life I knew. My life seemed small and simple compared to Noah's.
The realization that Noah occupied such a significant position in the business world both impressed and unsettled me. The differences between us were becoming glaringly obvious. I worked as a creative director at a small advertising agency. I was happy with my job, as it allowed me to express my creativity and bring my ideas to life. But Noah's world was much bigger and more complex. The grandeur and intensity of his life were far removed from mine.
As I stared at my phone screen, I felt a mix of emotions. My admiration for Noah's world also made me feel small in comparison. The difference between us was too large to ignore. Yet instead of feeling intimidated, I felt a stronger desire to get closer to him. I was curious about Noah's world, and I wanted to explore that life with him.
After some thought, I decided to send him another message. Knowing that his life was so big and full of responsibilities excited me.
Emma: "Wow, Noah... Your life sounds incredible. I can't even imagine what it must be like to manage everything you do. And that view from your office... it's breathtaking."
After sending the message, I wondered how he would respond. It seemed strange that someone with such a powerful and impressive life would be interested in me. But perhaps it showed that he was looking for something different as well.
My phone buzzed again, and I opened Noah's message.
Noah: "It has its moments, but it's not always as glamorous as it seems. The pressure can be intense, and sometimes I wish I could just... step away from it all. But that's the price of ambition, I guess."
This message revealed the challenges in Noah's life as well. Having such a grand life also came with great responsibility. However, his honesty and openness only strengthened the bond between us.
Emma: "I get that. I mean, my life's nowhere near as intense as yours, but I can imagine the pressure. Still, you seem to handle it all so well."
Despite his grand life, Noah's willingness to talk to me so openly only deepened my admiration for him. Even though we were in such different worlds, I felt that our connection was strong.
Noah: "Thanks, Emma. It means a lot to hear that from you. And don't sell yourself short. What you do, it's important. Creativity is a rare gift, and it sounds like you've got it in spades."
This message filled me with warmth. Noah's appreciation of me only solidified my interest in him. These conversations were not just a game; they were a process of building a real connection.
My eyes lingered on the photo of the stunning city view from Noah's office. The fact that someone from such a big world was interested in someone as small as me both surprised and delighted me. I wanted to explore more of who Noah was and what his life was like. Perhaps these differences between us were not obstacles but rather opportunities to build an even stronger connection.
I turned off my phone and took a deep breath. I wondered if I was ready to find a place in Noah's big and complex world. But deep down, I knew I wanted to continue this journey with him. I wanted to get to know Noah's life more closely and embark on this journey with him.
