Wrong Number

The Message That Wasn't Meant For Him

11:58 PM
Mia lies on her bed, staring at the ceiling after another exhausting day.
Mia
Mia
Hey...
Mia
Mia
Are you awake?

Mia
I seriously can't do this anymore...
Mia
Mia
Another interview... another rejection.

Mia
I wish someone would tell me everything will be okay.
She presses Send without looking at the contact.

A few seconds later...

Wait...

Oh no...

Mia
Wrong number! I'm so sorry. 😭
The message is seen immediately.

It's okay.
Mia stares at the screen.
Unknown
Unknown
Everyone sends a wrong message at least once.
Mia
Mia
😅 Thanks for understanding.
Unknown
Unknown
But...
Unknown
Unknown
I think you needed to hear this.
Mia
Mia
Hear what?
Unknown
Unknown
Everything will be okay.
Mia freezes.
A complete stranger...
...said exactly what she needed.
Mia
Mia
Thank you.
Unknown
Unknown
You're welcome.
A minute passes.
Just as Mia is about to put her phone away...
📩 New Message
Unknown
Unknown
Since we're already talking...
Unknown
Unknown
Tell me one good thing that happened today.
Mia smiles for the first time all day.
To Be Continued......

The Stranger

11:46 PM
Mia kept staring at her phone
Why was she thinking about a complete stranger?
She shook her head.
Mia
Mia
I still can't believe I texted the wrong person. 😅
Unknown
Unknown
And I still can't believe you apologized three times.
Mia
Mia
I was embarrassed!
Unknown
Unknown
I noticed.
Mia
Mia
So... what were you doing before I interrupted?
Unknown
Unknown
Working.
Mia
Mia
At midnight?
Unknown
Unknown
Night is peaceful.
Mia
Mia
That's a strange answer.
Unknown
Unknown
I'm a strange person.
Mia smiled without realizing it.
Mia
Mia
Fair enough.
A few moments passed.
Then......
Unknown
Unknown
Did you eat dinner?
Mia blinked.
Mia
Mia
That's random.
Unknown
Unknown
Did you?
Mia
Mia
No
Unknown
Unknown
Go eat.
Mia
Mia
Are you ordering me around?
Unknown
Unknown
No.
Unknown
Unknown
Just making sure a stranger doesn't sleep hungry.
Mia couldn't remember the last time someone cared about such a small thing. She quietly went to the kitchen, made instant noodles, and came back and send a picture of it .
Mia
Mia
Happy now?
Unknown
Unknown
Much.
Mia
Mia
😂
There was a brief silence. Then another message appeared.
Unknown
Unknown
One question.
Mia
Mia
Hmmm?
Unknown
Unknown
If we hadn't met by mistake...,Do you think fate would've found another way?
Mia stared at the screen. She didn't know how to answer. Before she could type...
Unknown went offline.

One Rule

The Next Night...
11:30 PM
Mia unlocked her phone for what felt like the hundredth time.
No new messages.
She sighed.
"Why am I waiting for someone I don't even know?"
Just as she put the phone aside...
Unknown
Unknown
Still awake?
A Smile appeared on her face instantly.
Mia
Mia
I was about to sleep.
Unknown
Unknown
Liar
Mia
Mia
😳
Unknown
Unknown
You've been online five times in the last ten minutes.
Mia
Mia
Were you watching?
Unknown
Unknown
Maybe
Mia
Mia
That's a little creepy.
Unknown
Unknown
I'll take that as a compliment.
Mia laughed.
She didn't even know his name, yet talking to him felt... easy.
After a few minutes...
Unknown
Unknown
Can I ask you something?
Mia
Mia
Go ahead.
Unknown
Unknown
Why did you look so sad yesterday?
Mia stared at the message.
She hadn't told him anything.
Mia
Mia
How did you know I was sad?
Unknown
Unknown
Your first message.
"I wish someone would tell me everything will be okay."
Unknown
Unknown
Happy people don't usually send messages like that.
For a moment, Mia didn't know what to say.
Mia
Mia
Had another job interview.
Mia
Mia
Didn't get selected.
Unknown
Unknown
Their loss.
Mia smiled.
No one had ever said that to her before.
Mia
Mia
You're good at saying the right things.
Unknown
Unknown
Only when they're true.
A few seconds passed.
Then he sent another message.
Unknown
Unknown
Let's make one rule.
Mia
Mia
Rule?
Unknown
Unknown
We don't ask each other's names.
Unknown
Unknown
No photos.
Unknown
Unknown
No calls

Just honest conversations.
Mia frowned.
It sounded strange...
But somehow, it also felt exciting.
Mia
Mia
Deal. 🤝
Unknown
Unknown
Good
Unknown
Unknown
Good night, stranger.
Mia
Mia
Good night... stranger.
As Mia placed her phone on the table, she couldn't stop smiling.
She still didn't know who he was.
But for the first time in weeks... She was actually looking forward to tomorrow.
