Unknown number: Good morning, beautiful.
Anah: Hey.
Anah: Can I ask you something?
Unknown number: Depends.
Anah: #2…
Unknown number: Let’s not do this, Anah.
Anah: I’m just curious, that’s all.
Unknown number: Curiosity killed the cat.
Anah: I’m not a cat… and cats have nine lives anyway. I think I’ll be ok.
Anah: How hot was she?
Unknown number: On a scale?
Anah: Sure, why not.
Unknown number: About a 7.
Anah: What does that mean?
Unknown number: It means she was on a par with Lacey Mason.
Anah: Lacey’s beautiful.
Unknown number: No, you’re beautiful. Lacey is… pretty, but she’s not you, Anah.
Anah: I wasn’t fishing for a compliment.
Unknown number: I know, but you got one anyway. Because it’s the truth
Anah: Blushing so much right now.
Unknown number: I know. I can see you.
Anah: You can see me?
Unknown number: Stop looking around the room like that. You look like the Exorcist girl when you crane your neck like that.
Anah: Where are you?
Unknown number: Not in your class.
Anah: *Groan* Why can’t you ever just give me a straight answer?!
Unknown number: Because you look freakin’ adorable when you get all angry. It’s kinda become a hobby of mine to tick you off.
Anah: I swear to God, when I finally find out who you are I am going to make you pay!
Unknown number: Really? How so?
Anah: I don’t know… but I’ll think of something.
Unknown number: Quaking in my boots, babe.
Anah: You better be… Honey Bun.
Unknown number: What the hell did you just call me?!
Anah: You don’t like it, Honey Bun?
Unknown number: What do you think?
Anah: Whatever, Honey Bun.
Unknown number: Is this Phase One of your payback?
Anah: It wasn’t… but now that you’re getting so wound up about it, it totally is.
Unknown number: I hate you.
Anah: Keep telling yourself that.
Anah: Honey Bun.
Unknown number: Stop grinning like that. It’s not funny, Anah.
Anah: I beg to differ.
Unknown number: I’m out.
Anah: Bye… Honey Bun.
Unknown number: *slams head on table*
