Sisi Ne Sawa or Mia More?

Cyber Love

"So you'r coming over at 5 today right? I can't do the math's homework alone. I swear to god I think the teachers are demons trying to kill us with this much crap! Like who will ever use the stupid Pythagoras Theorem? Who!" Elena blabbered to me while I was peacefully walked to my dad's car.

"Oh my god woman! Do you like ever shut up or did you come out of you'r mother's womb blabbering non-stop. I won't be surprised if she tried to shove you back in or the doctor's tried to accidentally "drop" you. I said I will come!" with that I hugged her with our usual phrase "Get run over by a bus" and hopped on to my dad's car.

My family is huge, like we have 6 members but now we reduced down to only 4, which includes my mom, dad, annoyingly ugly brother and me, the money plant of the family and little angel. I have 2 elder sister's but they left me here in Oman to suffer the wrath of my brother and parents while they enjoy their married lives in Australia.

As I returned home my usual routine is to get cleaned up and lay on my bed spread like a starfish. Let me tell you something to ease you'r confusion, Oman is a literal oven, so me spreading out in front of my A.C is the only kind of ventilation which prevents my body from heating up and results in me sweating like a pig. Everyone expects me to be pretty used to the scorching heat since I lived my whole life here but Oman never fails to surprise me with how hot it can get each year.

One of my hobbies is to download strange virtual games and speaking to random strangers. Weird? Thought so, well in a way it's fun because I get to be whoever I want and at the end of the day no one will know it's me. So recently I have been playing this game "My Second Life" and for a basic description, it's a game where pedophiles come to fulfill there "needs" by talking to random people from around the world. Just make an account and style you'r avatar then go chat with people. It's more like The Sims but more weirder and well strange. Most of the times I put fake names but from some reason I let my stupid side take over and I used my real name on display along with my GPS on, since this game works only when you'r GPS is on.

It has been approximately 3 months since I joined this game and there has been this stranger I have been talking who claimed her was 20 and goes by the name "Mark Gauge". I never got the creep vibe off him so we started talking and from his prospective we were "dating". I mean being an ex-bully I still have the "mean" genes in me so I let the poor fella think we were dating, when in reality I really was not the slightest bit interested in him.

Elena always warned me not to go and play these virtual games because that's how people get stalked and kidnapped, and my come back would be always 'You watch too much True Crime". I mean I was a pro at this since in the past I had experiences with stalkers so I was not too worried. Elena and I would always make fun of Mark and how clueless he is, so yes we both a huge ex-bullies but we are trying to change... I guess.

A message popped up on my screen as I was scrolling through my Instagram feed, stalking gorgeous hotties. It read "Hey babe, back from school? You said you would text me I guess you forgot, but I still love you! <3." For some reason that message made me cringe and I ignored it returning back to my stalking.

One thing you should know I am not into all the cheesy relationship type, it makes me cringe so much to the point I want to barf. I mean I knew Mark was just being a typical boyfriend but for some reason today I was not feeling the mood to talk to him. As time passed by I received several other texts from Mark saying "Baby are you angry with me?", "Babe what happened?", "Babe where are you? Please message me back!"

What really caught my attention was one particular text from him saying "WHERE THE F**K ARE YOU! I SWEAR IF YOU DON'T MESSAGE ME BACK YOU'R GONNA REGRET IT!" With that I have to admit I was a bit freaked out and taken back but I let it slide and I knew telling Elena will only give me her ever so famous "I Told You So" and I was not going to let her enjoy her glory moment.

I got ready and packed my books to head to Elena's house to study, I got a quick look at my phone and was shocked to see "100 messages from Mark" in my phone all repeating his previous message "WHERE THE F**K ARE YOU! I SWEAR IF YOU DON'T MESSAGE ME BACK YOU'R GONNA REGRET IT!" and a few threats here and there.

Elena and I were just taking a break after studying for 2 hours at a stretch, and while she was being lazy as usual I decided to invade her kitchen and bake a cake because believe it or not I love baking. Elena stormed into the kitchen shouting "Alexis, what the freaking hell is this!" No shocker she was going through my phone and read my messages with Mark and she found out about the threats, great!

"It's nothing dude, he's just being a wuss. I think it's his time of the month now" I said with a calm expression while icing the cake.

"Dude are you serious! This is not nothing! He threatened you for god sakes! Don't act all macho in front of me because I know you are scared shitless! Now tell me what the hell are you going to do about this?" she responded holding up my unlocked phone.

We sat by the couch in an attempt to have a serious talk but how can we when Elena is hogging all over my cake like a pig with icing all over her face, then she calls me stupid!

"So are you done gobbling up my delicious creation like a pig or do you need more time so that you can cover you'r hideous face with my frosting?" I said trying to hold on to my laughter to the mess in front of me.

"Shut up! The only reason this cake is good because you'r using my high quality products. Now back to business" she said wiping her filth on tissue

"Ya sure, what ever helps you sleep at night. So as I was saying I am going to B-L-O-C-K him then delete my account then delete the game" I responded emphasizing on the "blocking" part so that she see how much experience I have in these type of situations.

"Saying out loud "BLOCK" doesn't mean you'r and expert, means you'r a stupid shit." she said quietly smirking.

"GET OUT OF MY HEAD BITCH! Jeez always invading my thoughts!" with that I opened the texts and typed to Mark "We are over, don't try texting me because I am blocking you for good." As soon as I sent that text instantaneously he responded with

"I'll see you soon my cyber love."

With that some how our conversation log disappeared and my phone switched off. "What the hell was that?" Elena asked with a terrified expression filling her face. "I don't know but I sure as hell know I am getting a new phone" with that we looked at each other with worry and fear.

"By the way... I TOLD YOU SO!" Elena shouted out with happiness boosting her ego.
