"Hello, this is the school hotline for advice. How may I help you?"

"Do you have to say it everytime? Is it compulsory?"

"Well.... They never said it's compulsory, but we have to say it to every new student."

"But I'm not new. You must have my number saved by now, right?"

"Actually, no. You see, we have an app through which the calls are directed to any of the members' phones who are free."

"I didn't know that."

Laughs, "Nobody knows."

"Oh yeah, I never asked your name. Or what I should call you."

"Huh.... I dunno, I don't have any nicknames or petnames. Call me Hotline Girl or whatever you want to."

"How about Hottie?"

"..."

"Hello?"

"..."

"I'm sorry, it's a joke!"

"..." "It better be."

Chuckles, "Wow, touchy subject?"

"Uh, I am no hottie. You're just reminding me of what I'm not."

"I think you're hot."

"..."

"Uh..."

"..."

"Shit, I messed up, didn't I?"

Giggles, "It's okay, RM. I just, you haven't seen me, or met me, so how can you say I'm hot?"

"Ah, I meant your personality. You're a nice person."

"Uhm, thanks. That's the sweetest thing any guy has ever said to me."

"Wow, really? Are you surrounded by jerks? Because somebody needs to tell you how amazing you are."

"You are the second person to tell me I'm amazing in two days, Lover Boy. What's up?"

"I talked to her!!"

"Woah, really?! That's amazing!"

"Yeah, sad part is, it wasn't me who initiated the conversation."

"Oh, she did, didn't she? Either way, we have a breakthrough! Get your game up, RM, you don't want to lose her."

"No I don't. I have liked her for too long."

Smiles, "Of course. I'm with you. I will try my best to help you however I can."

"Thanks. Y'know, we always talked about me, we have never talked about you."

Laughs, "It's supposed to be about you, idiot."

"Well, I want to get to know you."

"Okay, but I ain't sharing my identity."

"That's okay. So, are you always this happy and hyper? Or is it the phone calls?"

"Hm... I am 7 out of 10 times like this, and normally, I am not sassy, but when it comes to boys, it just pulls up."

Smirks, "Oh yeah?"

"Tell me, are you always so self-confident or is it the phone calls?"

".... Actually, I'm not. I keep to myself usually."

"Yeah?"

"Hey! We were talking about you; don't change the subject!"

Laughs, "Wasn't trying to. But we don't need to talk about me, really-"

"What's your favourite colour?"

"(F/c). Really, RM, you don't have to-"

"Do you have a boyfriend?"

"Why, are you interested?"

"No, I'm asking because you know my love-life."

"Aw, that's too bad. I was hoping you would be interested."

"..."

"RM?"

"..."

"You do know that I was kidding, right? I have a crush, don't worry. Not on you. On a guy in my class."

"Wow, I got worried. You're really nice, and I didn't want to hurt you in any way."

"You are not hurting me. Actually, you have become quite a good friend."

"Yeah, you too."

*bell rings*

"Whoops, gotta go. Time's up!"

"Bye, Hotline Girl."

"Yeah, we need to fix that till next time. Bye."

*hangs up*
