Dropping myself onto my bed, I relaxed with a deep breath. Finally, peace!

I closed my eyes, letting my body sink into the coolness of the sheets. God, I love it so much. I rolled onto my side, burying my face deep into the cold, fluffy pillow, finally letting myself unwind.

Suddenly, the thought of that guy with the bee-stung dog profile picture crossed my mind, and my head shot up from the pillow. Almost instinctively, I reached for my phone and opened Discord, curious to see if he had accepted my friend request yet.

To my surprise, he had!

But theres no text from him :((

My face dropped back into the pillow when I saw there was no message from him. But then I sat up again, an idea crossing my mind. Why not send him a funny GIF as my first message?

I quickly searched for a random GIF and sent it, my eyes widened when I saw his status change to typing...

And, much to my frustration, he sent another GIF in reply instead of actually texting.

Why Anmol why?

I guess he's not interested in talking but nevermind let me try one last time.

Trying one last time to initiate a conversation, I asked him how he was doing. And somehow, the conversation just started flowing from there.

We talked about his dog pfp, and he told me how it reminded him of the "my dog stepped on a bee" meme. Not knowing what else to reply, I simply flipped the sentence around.

"My bee stepped on a dog."

Did that actually make him laugh? Maybe?

Nah. Who would even laugh at that?

Keeping up the conversation we started talking about food.

Me: wyd?

Anmol: I'm having coffee with an avocado sandwich.

Me: Oh damn, you like bland food?

Anmol: Yeah, it's good. Hbu?

Me: I'm js listening to some songs while doing maths twerks

Anmol: dances along, almost dropping my sandwich.

Aww he's so cute.

Me: prepares another sandwich and gives it to you.

Our little conversation continued effortlessly, unfolding one detail at a time. Somewhere between the casual exchanges, I learned that he was around my age ,the youngest in his family,he doesn't consume protein powder because his mom doesn't allow him to, he's learning computer science and taking a drop year while preparing to study abroad. There was something strangely fascinating about it ,the thought that someone so close to my age was already preparing to step into an entirely different world. It was, honestly, pretty cool.
