I hesitated for a moment before typing my reply. Was it strange that I already felt curious about him? Maybe. But something about Efes was different. His words weren't just polite small talk; they carried a natural warmth that made me want to keep the conversation going.
Feslin: "Sure! You seem different from the people I usually talk to here."
A few seconds later, his reply popped up.
Efes: "Oh? Different how? Do I seem like a robot, or just weird enough to be interesting?"
I chuckled at his playful response. Most people in the app either acted overly formal or got straight to flirting, but Efes... he had a rhythm, a way of making simple words feel alive.
Feslin: "More like interesting. You don't just ask the usual questions. It's refreshing."
Efes: "That's because I actually want to talk, not just collect 'Hi, how are you?' messages like trophies."
I smiled at my screen. The way he spoke made it feel like we had known each other for longer than just a few minutes.
We talked for what felt like hours, exchanging pieces of our lives.
I didn't want this to be just another fleeting conversation.
I wanted to know more about him.
