Stalker much?
-My Girl.

I stared at the bold words on my phone screen, rage bubbling to the surface. Part of my anger was directed at the man who sent the message, but the larger chunk landed squarely on my friend.

It was her fault. If only she had respected that little section of the screen, none of this would have happened.

And if only you had taken yourself seriously and focused while collecting your friend's number in the first place, this disaster wouldn't exist! The sarcastic voice in my head piped up.

I facepalmed, letting out an exaggerated groan.

Determined to play the mature game, I ignored his text and tried to continue with my tasks.

I managed to hold out for thirty minutes before I finally exploded and decided to send him a piece of my mind.

It was an honest mistake made by a friend of mine. Don't think so highly of yourself.
-Amirah.

I fought the urge to pair my response with an emoji that captured my exasperation. Just as I settled back into my thoughts, another message pinged.

Suit yourself. It'll only be fair for me to see your face since you've seen mine.
-My Girl

So it is him.

It is really him. Damnit!

I actually wished he was some lanky old dude.

But nothing about his voice sounded old or lanky. Instead, it had a rich combination of boldness and huskiness, a blend that was almost delicious to my ears. Too manly to ignore.

Okay, it's official. I'm delusional. Why do I sound like I'm crushing on a stupid, arrogant stranger? A stranger I accidentally called! Lord, save me!

I never thought awkward, lanky people could be arrogant. No offense!
-Amirah.

No offense taken. You're admitting you stalked me. Great way to catch a liar.
-My Girl.

We were past the stage of strangers now.

He seemed determined to keep this conversation alive, even though it irked me to no end. We were just trading insults, which meant I'd have to rename his contact. No one calls me a liar without consequences. I could easily change the contact details and forward it to Daddy along with my complaints about this idiot.

I didn't stalk you, and I'm no liar. Go to hell.
-Amirah.

That line sucks. It's outdated.
-Arrogant AH.

Why aren't you some waste picker? Got nothing better to do?
-Amirah.

Checking up on you now, aren't I? For your information, I'm on a break. Training ambitious kids isn't easy.
-Arrogant AH.
