"...hello?"

"..."

"Helloooooooo?"

"Haven't I told you I need my beauty sleep?"

"I'm bored."

"That doesn't concern me."

"And you haven't told me your name."

"That doesn't concern you."

"It actually does."

"Stay out of my business, okay? You have no right, no right to know anything about me."

"Woah, feisty."

"What did you just call me?"

"Feisty?"

"Okay, I hate it when people use that word on me. Even if I am feisty, can't you use a different word? Why does everyone keep using that same word?"

"Okay, okay, I'm sorry-"

"Sorry doesn't mean anything."

"...okay, then why don't we play a game?"

"That doesn't mean anything either."

"It's not meant to mean anything. It's just a game."

"What game?"

"Ever heard of Twenty Questions?"

"Is it the one someone chooses an object and the other person has to ask questions to guess it?"

"No, it's a game I created where each player take turns to ask the other player a maximum of twenty questions about anything. No lies. No avoiding questions."

"...no. We are not playing that game."

"Look, it's just a game. And if you don't play, I'll just keep pestering you."

"You're a pain, Walter."

"So, you up for it?"

"On one condition: you don't ask anything personal. That includes my name."

"Okay, fine. Nothing personal."

"Okay."

"I'll go first. What's your favourite colour?"

"Hm, should be cerulean. What position are you on the football team?" 

"Quaterback. How old are you?"

"Seventeen, nearly eighteen. How tall are you?"

"1.8 metres. Why are you here?"

"That's personal."

"C'mon, how is that personal? You know why I'm in here."

"I said it's personal."

"No it's not."

"Yes, it is. Don't be childish."

"I am not childish!"

"Good night."

"Wait! Okay, you don't have to answer that question! I'll ask you another one!"

"..."

"Answer me!"

"..."

"Dammit."
