You: Hey...

UN: That didn't take long. How are you?

You: Fine you?

UN: Fine... Is everything okay? You sound hesitant?

You: And you say you aren't psychic!

UN: First,  I'm glad you have such confidence in me. Second, I'm still not psychic but I do know writing techniques.

You: An enthusiast?

UN: Why not

You: Well... I guess I'm extremely CuRiOS!!! Who is this? And how did you get my number?

UN: I bet you'll figure it out if we talk some more :]

You: Is this Gary? Only my fifteen year old brother would pull such a prank on me. But he wouldn't know about the break up yesterday...

UN: Not Gary, but I wouldn't mind meeting him some day. Sounds fun

You: Mary, is this you? You always were a prankster

UN: Not Mary. And not a girl.

You: Thank you!! Another hint! Muhaha!!

UN: Now who's the trickster?

You: You left me no choice! I don't think you realize just how curios I can get. You know the phrase about the cat? Well, it's pretty much based on me... Except not really... Because, you know, I'm still alive...and stuff...

UN: Or the fact that you might have nine lives because you are a cat...

You: Yeah that phrase never really scared anyone.

UN: Now if it was curiosity killed the shark, that would be scary. Because sharks are instigators of fear themselves.

You: Actually if that were the phrase, I doubt the humans would have invented fire, out of fear of what might happen. Oh the poor world!

UN: Hey, I actually have to go right now, but don't stop guessing!

You: Oh okay... Bye
