Once again at the bottom of the pool I typed a message to Fang.
ChocolateEyes: Hey, you busy?
He responded immediately, as always. Fang: Of course not. What's up?
I smiled. ChocolateEyes: Don't you have a job or something? Any kind of life off the computer?
Fang: I have a life. And a job. This is just entertainment. I'm actually on my phone, not a computer.
ChocolateEyes: What's your job?
Fang: I can't tell you that.
ChocolateEyes: Oh, sorry. Do you enjoy it?
Fang: Yes, I enjoy it very much. :-)
ChocolateEyes: That's good. I'm happy for you. Does it pay well, too?
Fang: No, not at all. But it's not a problem. I have a good life.
ChocolateEyes: Your "job" wouldn't happen to be school, would it?
Fang: Now, why would I call education a "job"? No. I'm not in school.
ChocolateEyes: I sometimes call school a job. It's the only occupation I've got right now. Though someday I hope to be a writer.
Fang: Well you do write better than most people. What kind of writer do you want to be? A novelist, perhaps?
ChocolateEyes: Yes, I would love to have one of my stories published.
Fang: And I would love to read one. Knowing you, I'm sure they'd be wonderful.
ChocolateEyes: Oh, Fang, are you flirting with me?
Fang: Why, I'd never. ;-)
ChocolateEyes: ;-P Yeah, sure.
Fang: :-P
I've always enjoyed talking to Fang. He and I have a mutual agreement not to share too much personal information with each other and to never meet in person. Even so, I use what little information I can get to search for him on yet another application on this computer that is very likely illegal. I'm able to find people simply by inputting information about the person. It can be any kind of information about them: religion, social class, food preferences, personality traits. It has all kinds of things to search by.
I even found myself on there simply by inputting certain things about myself; religion: Lunesity/Christianity, gender: female, country: U.S.A., race: white, first initial: K. And with that alone, the results narrowed down to thirty-seven people. With a few more things it got me. It showed me myself. It had my recent school picture as the primary identification photo. It had my full name, my birth date, my home address, my family members, even my species! It read like this:

It even had my social security number and my life's story, as well as several other things. I was desperately curious who had made this computer so I did another search.
