Unknown Number: Short Story

by John M3 Frame

"Hi,” a man in his thirties says on the phone. "Who is calling?" a girl answers, her voice is so thin that it seems that of a little girl. "I called you to tell you how beautiful you look in those videos my love," the man says to her. The girl smiles. "Really?" she says excitedly. "Yes, my life, you have a great future as a model, you heard my love," the man says, looking at his computer screen. "Um, I've got a question,” the girl says. The man smiles and nods. "about the number, right?" he says while moves his head and looking at the phone screen. The girl is silent for a few seconds. "we better continue only by chatting," she says to him. "Of course, my life only remembers my voice," the man says. He looks at the phone, curls his lips, hangs up, and looks at his computer screen. Suddenly his eyes widen, he leans back, splashing a soda next to the desk.
