Story: We Finally Met - S01 E05

:Richard and Jane were romancing on bed half naked. I caught them red handed. My girlfriend and my best friend? No.

This is so unfair. They both looked back and saw me. Jane quickly got off him and was covering her body feeling ashamed to look at me. Richard was also shocked to see me. I shook my head sadly and turned back leaving. I stormed out to the compound in anger. I got to my car and hit my fist hard on the body. Why? Why’s everything going wrong for me? Why’s life so unfair to me? I thought to myself leaning my head on the body of my car..

.“I heard some footsteps behind me but I didn’tbother to look.“Dave”I heard Jane’s voice. “I’m sorry. It’s notthe way you see it. Let me just ex….”“Explain what?”I caught her short yelling angrily.“Jane I just can’t believe you’ll do this to me. I thought you love me. I gave you all my trust. Igave you all my heart but is this how you wish pay back? Richard is my best friend. Why? Why would you do that?”I asked yelling with tears almost escaping my eyes. “I’m sorry. I know Ireally hurt you. I’m so sorry dave.”she said,crying. “You don’t have to be sorry. It’s over between us. We are done for good. You can continue with whatever you were doing with that son of a b---h!”I said in anger and get intomy car. I drove out in full speed thinking aboutso many things. So Richard of all people can also stab me in the back? I must be a fool for trusting people easily.

Even the ones you love and trusted most canend up betraying you. That’s life.I keep driving until I got to a bar. I decided tostop and go in for some drink just to clear offmy thoughts

.:Anna’s POV

After my shift, I changed from my uniform and was heading to the compound. I met Josh by the entrance and we were both walking out together.“Do you live far from here?”he asked. “Not too far”I replied with a smile. “You’re lucky.”he said smiling too. “Why? Do you live very far?”Iasked. He node his head head in respond and waved his hand. “Bye. see you tomorrow”he said and went to his car. I went to mine too. I sat down calmly and brought out my phone to call Rachael. I unlocked it and a strange wallpaper appeared on the screen. “What’s this?”I said in confusion.

I checked the back of the phone and found out it’s not mine. “Whose phone is this?Where’s my phone?”I asked looking confused.

Then I remembered when I bumped into mystrange neighbor. “Oh my God! We swapped phones?”I said in shock. So it means that guy is having my phone? I thought to myself.

His phone looks exactly the same as mine IPhone8+ and it’s gold too except my own has Dave’s wallpaper at the back. This is a big mixedup. I quickly drive home to check if he’ll be around so that I can swap it back.

On getting home I quickly changed into my casual wears and planned to step out. When I gotto the entrance, I stopped and decided to call my phone instead.

What if he is not home? I thought to myself. I walked back to sit on the couch and unlocked the phone. I went to call log and dialed my number. It rings for long but no responds. It’s past 8pm. But has he not noticed that we swapped phones? He should have called since morning.

Well maybe he was too busy to operate hisphone. I called my number again and no respond. I stood up and went to his apartment. I took a deep breath before pressing the door bell. No one answered and I pressed on it again.

No one came to open the door and I guess he’s nothome yet.

What’s all this? I need to call Rachael and also need to check some things on my phone. How am I going to do all that without my phone? I thought to myself sadly.

The phone started ringing and I checked the caller. Jane displayed as the caller but I couldn’t answer it because It’snot mine. It went off and started ringing again. Ididn’t pick it and let it go off. Soon a message came on the screen. “Dave please can you pickmy calls at least? I still have something I want to tell you”I read it and quickly took the phone off my face. “So his name is dave”I said. “But why ishe always covering his face with mask? Is he a criminal?”i asked myself. I decided to go to his gallery to check for some pics just to know how he look like. I opened the gallery and clicked on some random pictures. my eyes were widely opened that they nearly pop out of their sockets. “Oh my God!”I gasp in surprise. “How can this be true? No maybe he just have his pictures.

Anyone can have Dave’s pictures on their phone.It means nothing”I said laughing. “But dave. Heis dave too? How funny. What a coincident”Isaid laughing out more louder.I called my number again to check if there would be respond this time around and luckily,someone picked up. “Hello” I heard a man’s voice. “Hello” I said back. “Sorry. The owner of this phone Is at my bar. He is so drunk and can’t get up right now. Am closing soon and can’t just watch him here like this.” he said. “Drunk?Where’s your bar located?”I asked.

He told me the address and I went to wear something warm then set out to leave.

I took the bus and got to the place mentioned tome. I walked into the bar looking around. I called my phone and it started ringing. The man picked it on the table and answered it. “Are you here?”he asked. “Yes I’m here.” I said walking towards them. I got there and greeted the man.

He gave me my phone and went back to what he was doing. I looked at the guy who was resting his head on the table and tapped him softly.“Hey. Excuse me”I said tapping him but he didn’traise his head. I took his hand and shook him roughly before he raise up his head. He was not wearing a mask this time but had a faze cap on. I couldn’t see the face properly. So I was trying to assist him up. “Leave me alone. Who are you?”he asked looking up at me. He tried to Jack off my hand but staggered and the faze cap removed revealing his face. I opened my mouth in shock. “Dave?”I said in surprise. He held the table before him to gain balance and raised up his head looking directly at me. I moved back a bit full of surprises. So he is the strange neighbor?The annoying guy that never reveal his face or give me attention is really Dave?I was dumbfounded not knowing what to do next and he was also staring at me without aword.:
