"CHAT ME WHEN YOU FALL”
DAY 14
(She Status Update: I want to be alone, yet I want him to notice me all over again. I want to be myself, but I just can’t. I want him to send me messages yet I don’t want to reply, both at the same time. Am I willing to take the risk?)

KEISHA: Funny.
KIN: I am joking actually^__^

KEISHA: Weird.
KIN: I waited you greetings actually.
KEISHA: I’m sure, I’m not the only one.

KEISHA: Nice:) GTG to sleep.
KIN: Thank you again, friend.
KEISHA: No problem....
KIN: Goodnight
KEISHA: Same here

DAY 16
(He Status Update: She keeps growing. I remember when I left her, she’s still thinking what she wanted to be. Now, I'm watching her walking towards the stage like an angel. She changed a lot. She was too shy and silent before. She never talks to anyone except me and her friends. She’s will never talk unless she’s comfortable with the person. But now, boys are looking at her. I want to drag her beside me and shout at every one to back-off because she's mine. But it’s not possible....anymore...and will never be....)
(5:32 am)
KIN: Hi, morning
KEISHA: Wazzup?
KIN: Daily routine. How are you?

KIN: Good guess^____^
KEISHA: You’re really weird. Yes I am with him. He is my partner.
KIN: I see. Be careful then.
KEISHA: As if he’ll kill me.
KIN: Precaution.
KEISHA: He’s a good guy.
KIN: You can’t trust anyone.
KEISHA: Should tell that to myself every time I chat with you.
KIN: Well, I assure you, I am harmless.
KEISHA: Well, who would confess his crime before he’ll do his thing?
KIN: Promise, I will never make you suffer.
KEISHA: Someone told me those words, in the end, he just broke them.
*stops*
KIN: Who?

KIN: Psssst!
KEISHA: Personal questions not allowed.
KIN: I thought we’re friends?
KEISHA: You assumed.
KIN: It’s embarrassing on my part. Hahaha
KEISHA: I don’t need you.
KIN: You need me.
KEISHA: Over billions of people in the world, you think I still need you?
KIN: May I ask, why do you hate me so much?
*pause*
KEISHA: Why do you keep on chatting with me?
KIN: I don’t know.
KEISHA: Then that’s my answer.
KIN: I just want your attention.
KEISHA: What’s wrong? Don’t you get any attention back home?
KIN: Haaaayyyy. This conversation is never going anywhere.
KEISHA: That’s what you get in trying to converse with a boring person
KIN: You’re not boring. It’s just.....
KEISHA: No need to elaborate. I have to go now.
KIN: Okay, take care.
KEISHA: Sure. (phone-off)
KIN: Godbless. (phone-off)
(She Status Update: Promises are like the shine of the sun after a typhoon. It will bring you to an endless hope. It is like a candle light that gives flickers in the darkness. But broken promises are like a sudden thunder storm that keeps on destroying everyone. They are like pieces of broken glass that continuously bleeds your heart.)
(6:01 pm)
KIN: Hi Kei!!!
KEISHA: I’m not in the mood.
KIN: Why?
KEISHA: Too personal.
KIN: C’mon, give a break to your sarcasm.
KEISHA: There’s this guy who keeps on following me. He’s creepy!
KIN: Then?
KEISHA: He asked me if I wanna go out with him. Arrgggg! He’s crazy.
KIN: Go on.
KEISHA: When I refused, he dragged me down from the practice.
KIN: You don’t really know him?
KEISHA: No!!!
KIN: Then tell me more.
KEISHA: After dragging me, he drives me home! I am still at the practice with Rac for Pete’s sake!!
KIN: You’re mad because he takes you away from Rac or you’re mad because he dragged you?
KEISHA: BOTH!!!
KIN: Hey!! Calm down. Your phone must be mad at you right now.
KEISHA: Me too.
KIN: Hahaha! I just couldn’t imagine your face right now.
KEISHA: You have no idea.
KIN: Hahahaha!! I have something to say. I’ll say, “knock!knock”, you would reply back “who’s there”.
KEISHA: Are you serious?
KIN: YES!!!BADLY SERIOUS!!
KEISHA: Okay.
KIN: Knock!Knock!

(after 2 minutes)
KIN: Hahahahhaha!!! You’re awesome!!!
KEISHA: Why?
KIN: I was going to tell you a joke!!
KEISHA: really?
KIN: Face palm, Keisha</3
KEISHA: I am not fond of replying “who’s there” when someone is knocking at the door. I would just peep in the monitor.
KIN: My joke is really epic!!!!Hahahaha. You have no idea how much you made me laugh earlier.
KEISHA: You told me a joke?
KIN: Yeah. But you became the joke itself.
KEISHA: I don’t get you.
KIN: Okay, nevermind. Are you fine now?
KEISHA: Yeah thank you.
KIN: Wow! First time.
KEISHA: You really made me forget what happened, so might as well thank you.
KIN: Welcome. There’s something happened to me.
KEISHA: What?
KIN: There was this man who points a gun at me.
KEISHA: That’s bullshit!!
KIN: Don’t curse!!!
KEISHA: Okay, what happened next? Unfortunately you escaped....
KIN: How horrible friend I have. But next to that, he asked me if I want to die. I answered yes. You know what happened after?
KEISHA: He lowers his gun and said,”Damn, you want to talk about it?”.
KIN: How’d you know?
KEISHA: Someone told me that story before.
KIN: Owwww sorry.
KEISHA: No problem. It was just a part of my past. Hey!! I’m going.
KIN: Okay.
KEISHA: I will be out for a week. Please don’t flood my inbox.
KIN: I would love to do that “flooding thing”.
KEISHA: It’s up to you.
