Numb3rs

801 301 1524

Who the hell are you?

It's driving me nuts, this number I don't know but feel as though I recognize. As though it belongs to someone I used to converse with frequently, but no longer do. I was busy cooking in the kitchen when I received the text...

"Hi"

That's it. Just hi. There wasn't even a period to accompany the "hi". Just one lonely, maddeningly cryptic "hi". I replied 20 minutes later when I finally saw the message, asking who the sender was.

.....

No answer.

Ever.

I can't sleep, I'm so bothered by this number with no name. If it were simply an unknown number I would have be less frustrated, it's that I can't shake the urgent hunch that I've seen this number before. Why, oh why, did I ever decide to delete unused numbers from my phone? It's therapeutic, people say... Helps you to move on.....

Move on, my ass.
