Mia hesitates, her fingers hovering over the keyboard. She doesn’t know what he said or to whom, but she can hear the anxiety in his words. And for some reason, she doesn’t want to leave him hanging.
Mia (FL)
Hey you don’t know that yet. Maybe they’re just processing it.
???
Or maybe they read it and decided I’m not worth a response.
Mia (FL)
Come on, don’t think like that.
???
Easy for you to say. You’re not the one who just sent the most important message of your life.
Mia swallows. She really should tell him the truth. That he’s talking to a stranger. But instead, her thumbs move on their own.
Mia (FL)
Look, whatever happens, at least you won’t have to wonder anymore. That’s gotta count for something, right?
???
Maybe. I just—ugh. I don’t even know why I’m freaking out to you. I guess because you’re Eli. You get it.
Mia (FL)
*bites her lip*
???
Or, I don’t know… maybe I should introduce myself. That might help.
Ryan (ML)
Something like, Hi, I’m Ryan by the way. But I guess they knew that already.
Mia stares at his name, her heart skipping.
Mia (FL)
*Ryan. Now he’s real, not just some nameless stranger in my inbox.*
