I took a sip of my green tea while flipping over to the next page. I was currently at a public library, waiting for my friend, jungwoo to study together.

our final exam is around the corner and I'm doing all I could. my mom won't stop going on and on about how I should pass to get a scholarship and get into a good university,

believe me, anywhere works for me, but not for her. if I don't pass my finals with flying colors, she'll be preparing for my funeral. in her opinion, low-paying universities don't have food or a roof.

when I got focused on the topic I was reading, suddenly my phone vibrated. luckily I remembered to mute it down. because if my ringtone (which is exo's growl at the moment) started blasting in the library, I would yeet the phone away and never show my face here again.

it was a text from an unknown number. I never cared about unknown numbers, but since it might be jungwoo, I opened it anyways. wonder why he didn't text me using his phone though.

as soon as I opened it, I regretted my decision. my whole life flashed right in front of my eyes. and it was boring.

but nonetheless, it was a picture of a penis.

I don't know whose. but I hope it's not jungwoo's. or any of my friends'. or people I know. because that would be weird as fuck. I just decided to ignore it, and get back to my reading.

note to self: always delete unknown number's messages.

but then it vibrated again and again. since this girl from a table across me shot me an annoyed look, I had to read it. I could just block him, but that's too rude. I meant, he sent me something he's (probably) proud of, don't want to make him feel bad.

hi. wonyoung, right? I'm sorry if the picture got delivered first, my internet sucks ;)

I cringed at the text. so this disgusting dude just crept over a poor girl and the victim decided to give him the wrong number, which happened to be mine. right, my life couldn't get worse.

plus, who the fuck sends their dick picture first, then greetings? that's rude. well, sending pictures of their ugly penis is rude to begin with. but you could say hi first. where is your manners, dude? as a fellow man, I feel ashamed.

but anyways, since my mom taught me manners, I have to tell this little poor guy who just got rejected by a woman that he got the wrong number before he sends another picture of that disgusting inedible eggplant.

sorry, pal. but there's no wonyoung. don't be such a creep and maybe next time she'll give you her number.

I hit send, and took another sip of my green tea. not long after that, he replied. he doesn't know when to stop. he must be really desperate to get laid. poor dude.

come on wonyoung, what do you mean by a creep? I'm chittaphon, a.k.a ten. I'm from your literature class. you told me to text you.

I rolled my eyes. what's not clicking in this guy's small brain that's even smaller than his dick? clearly, the girl wasn't into him. because who would wrongly write their own phone number? that doesn't make any sense.

sorry, 'ten', but I'm telling you the truth. I'm not wonyoung. thanks for the pic, but I have my own, so no thanks :)

I replied and set my phone down. I got back to my reading. I flipped over a few pages and a few minutes passed by before my phone vibrated again. I guess he had to cry about it before replying.

you're... a guy?

yes. I don't even know a wonyoung.

I'm sorry. she had given me a wrong number. sorry for the... picture. just forget about this.

that would be hard since it's already engraved on my brain, but I'll try. 

there was a '...' showing that he was typing for a while. I took another sip and he finally hit send.

sorry for this question. but can you be honest, does my thing... idk, looks decent?

I almost snorted at his stupid question. I wasn't expecting that. who in their right minds would asks something like that? it's kinda perverted. and reaaally weird.

you just asked another guy if your inedible eggplant looks nice. not to judge, but that's a little strange.

I'm so sorry. I just gotta ask. I know it's weird. and it's just getting even weirder that I'm talking about my thing with another guy.

exactly. but to answer your question, it's okay I guess. this comes from a gay man, so half homo I suppose.

I really don't know why I answered his question, but I did anyways. well, in my defense, my mom taught me manners. but if my mom ever found out about this thing, she'll be preparing a double funeral. one for me, one for this ten guy.

of course, she's not homophobic. but what kind of mom would be thrilled when their child receives a dick picture? and even telling the sender that their banana looks 'okay'?

thank you. I'm really sorry for making you feel uncomfortable. maybe we can start over. I'm chittaphon, 21. but people call me ten. :)

I'm sicheng, 17.

I re-read my respond. he would totally freak out when he finds out about my age, but who cares. it's not my problem, I don't have to lie. I'm not the one who sent a photograph of my thing to a total stranger.

then, his reply showed me that my assumption was accurate.

OH MY GOD. I JUST SENT A MINOR MY DICK PIC. I'M GOING TO JAIL FOR SURE.

uhh... probably? but I'm turning 18 in october. that's two months from now.

thanks god. can you please, don't tell about this to anyone, ever? PLEASE.

I chuckled. I was right. he must be really scared right now. he can go to jail for years just because of the wrong number some random chick from his literature class gave him. it's kinda funny.

don't worry. I ain't a snitch.

THANK YOU!!!

I gotta go though, my friend is here.

I turned my phone off as jungwoo sat down in front of me. I looked up to me and flashed him my sweetest smile, so he won't ask any questions.

but knowing jungwoo, he's really oblivious. everyone knew that yukhei has a crush on him but it took whole two years for him to know.

" sorry I'm late. my dad couldn't send me so I had to ask yukhei. did you start yet ?"

my eyes trailed to my phone and I bit my lips. but then I managed another smile and shook my head.

" nope, I just got here too. let's start ."

he nodded and took his books out from his bag. I flipped over to the first page of the biology book. then, he spoke up again.

" oh right, yukhei's gonna introduce me to his friend this weekend. do you wanna come along? I don't want to be the third-wheeler ."

" sure ." I answered without knowing what's really waiting for me.

the end.

this one would have a sequel, probably. but maybe later. if I'm feeling productive :p
