(Ping! Ping! One new WhatsApp message from +917890...)
Unknown:
Hey there! Are you awake?
Sarah:
Umm... sorry! But who the hell are you?
Unknown:
Whoa, no need to go full-on fire-breathing dragon mode! I was expecting at least a 'hi.'
Sarah:
Why should I even bother with a greeting when I don't have a clue who this jerk is?
Unknown:
Ouch, You're grumpier than a bear with a toothache, Aren't you!? By the way, people call me a jerk, but they say it at my back.
Sarah:
Well, thank you. Now, remind me, who the heck are you again?
Unknown:
Oh, come on! How could you forget me so easily? We crossed paths last week.
Sarah:
I don't remember crossing paths with any weirdos. Spit it out, what do you want, or I'm hitting that block button right now!
Unknown:
I'm Aryan Thakur, Lavanya's friend, remember? I was the muscle who showed up last week to help her lug all her junk into your place...
Sarah:
Oh, the muscle with a mouth. I got it now. What's the point of this chat? 🙄
Aryan:
Just thought I'd say hi and remind you that I exist.
Sarah:
Hi. Existence acknowledged. Bye😒
Aryan:
Wait!
Sarah:
Whhaatt!?
Aryan:
Apart from admiring your fiery spirit, I wanted to know if you've discovered any secret treasure maps hidden in Lavanya's stuff. 🗺️😜
Sarah:
You're kidding, right?
Aryan:
Guilty as charged! Just trying to lighten the mood. So, how's your day going, apart from dealing with random goofballs like me?
Sarah:
Ugh, don't get me started. It's been a mess.
Aryan:
Messy, huh? Sounds like you could use a laugh. Did you hear about the tomato that crossed the road? It wanted to ketchup! 🍅😂
Sarah:
That's so dumb, it was almost funny. Almost. But wasn't! Blocking you now. Bye, jerk!😌

(As I slammed the door shut on Aryan's goofy antics, I couldn't help but feel a bit of relief. Little did I know, this wouldn't be the last time Aryan would find a way to make his presence known in my life.)
