Fate? Is that what Kevin thinks will reunite us? Honestly,  I don't believe in fate anymore. And there's nothing I know about his present life. I could never find him like that. I needed at least some clue to find him. This really sounds so stupid going around finding someone from your childhood whom you liked. And turned out he had liked me too. This feels strangely complicated. Either find him or just think about him for the rest of your life.

As I'm thinking about Kevin, Kristen's voice startles me "You have an appointment ma'am, may I send the client in?"

"Yes", I answer from inside my office.

There's a little hole to my office door  through which Kristen speaks to me. I really don't like the idea of increased telephone bill just to call inside the office from one room to another. Besides, why do I have an assistant if she can't do that much for me? Well, that's my ideology. Not everyone has to agree to it though.

At my apartment :

I switch through the channels as I think about ways to get to Kevin. I've tried looking for him in social media but I've failed to find him. Maybe he's been using a fake name. I don't even have his phone number. Then an idea pops up to my mind : E-mail.  But I don't know his e-mail address either.

I open my laptop and go into gmail. I send an e-mail to kevincowboyhat@gmail.com saying "Hey, I'm Betsy. If you remember me, please reply". I don't think he'd have such a long e-mail address but whatever. He probably has some numbers in the e-mail address. But I could try my luck, right? If it's his, I'll get a reply. If not, I'll just have to rely on fate to get to him.

Do you have a message for your loved ones?  Are you trying to deliver a message to a person who doesn't listen to you? Are you too tired trying to reach to that person who seems to be miles away from you? If that's the case, we're here for you. Just call us on our number 555666777888 and spill your heart out for your special one. This is a live program and we'll broadcast your message on our live television programme "Listen To Me".

That was such a wierd advertisement which played on the TV as I was switching the channels. And what kind of number is that? It felt like it was especially targeted towards me. The next thing I know is, I'm dialling the wierd demonic number on my phone and saying stupid things I regret, " Hey, Kevin it's me. I'm the nerd that broke your heart and I know I can fix it. Please just tell me where you are or just call me on my number 013269874. I'll be waiting for your call" and I hang up.

The live television programme says "okay we have a new message. This is for you Kevin". And the next voice is mine. I sound so bad on television. The host speaks as soon as my call ends "oh! What a sweet love. You are indeed very lucky dear Kevin. I hope you guys meet soon"

I wonder if Kevin would watch such stupid shows but never mind. Just a minute after my message is broadcasted, I get a call. I look at the unknown number hoping it to be Kevin's. My heart starts racing.

"Hello", I answer the call.

"Hey darling. I can be your sweet Kevin. So when are we meeting? ", a deep wierd voice says from the other side of the phone. I know it's not Kevin even though we've not talked for years. Kevin's voice is not so aggressive.

"Ew. Who the hell are you? What's your last name?"

"Oh! So you wanna marry me girl? It's West ok. Now c'mon gimmie yo address", says the ugly gigantic person from the other side of the phone.  I can imagine his facial structures and body just listening to his voice.

I hang up and immediately block the number because I'm sure that it's a dangerous person. I'm glad I didn't give away my personal number. That was an old number that I didn't even use anymore. I had no problem with people calling on it. Sometimes, I even gave the number to suspicious therapy patients who came to me with stupid problems.

After that one, I got many more calls from guys who weren't Kevin Coyboyhat but claimed to be some other Kevin's. And I know they were all lying anyway. From what I know, Kevin has soft and calming voice that would make anyone happy. And the voices that called me were mostly aggressive males trying to seek female attention just because they were too ugly or had garbage attitude. Seems like I'll have to depend on stupid fate to meet Kevin. I don't have the feelings that I used to have for him anymore but somewhere deep down in my heart, I know I still miss him. Even if we aren't meant to be together, I'd like to meet him at least once, just to have a little talk.

My phone beeps. It's a message. On my personal number. From my colleague Liz. It says " Hey come to office early tomorrow. I have something special for you".

Ugh... Liz. She's so irritating. The last time she did something special was spraying my office room with lavender room spray almost suffocating me and my clients. I don't know what she has in store this time.
