|| message from: Neighbor Dude ||

can I have another hint

It's only been two days. I said I'd give you one a week.

but that's only like 3 or 4 hints!

there's no way I'll be able to figure it out by then

Oh but there is a way, young padawan.

- _ -

so whatever it is you have, it affects one in 33,000 people

i looked that up but didn't get anything so technically your hint was faulty, a dud, so therefor, I need a different one

It's not that important and I'm not giving you another one until next week.

cmon I'm desperate

Obviously.

here I'll make you a deal

I'm not gonna like it am I?

probably not but hear me out

well text me out

anyways

everyday we reveal one thing about ourselves to slowly get to know each other, and in those things we tell each other it can be something totally random or it can be a hint of what you have, or just secrets or anything really

and we can't make fun of each other no matter how embarrassing it may sound

like, earth shattering embarrassment

Ok.

Neighbor dude is typing...

uh

Neighbor Dude is typing....

what?

I said ok.

just like that?

no 'buts' or conditions?

Nope.

no 'you're annoying' or 'leave me alone's?

No Jasper.

...

who are you and what have you done with my Willa?

Your what?

my Willa as in the Willa that shows herself to me, like the Willa that only talks to a select few human beings in the world and one of those happens to be me for whatever reason

Like I have a choice. If I don't text you back you'll keep messaging me until I do. You're like one of those clingy girlfriends.

i take major offense to that...

but if it means we've got a deal then I'll take it

Yes we have a deal.

that's great news!

I'm just doing this cause I wanna hear the stupid things you've done.

and just when I thought we were having a sweet moment

my heart, firefly

my heart

it hurts

Yeah yeah.

alright, where shall we begin?

At the beginning.

- _ -

wow, such a comedian

i meant like who's going first

You.

i went first last time

I don't care. It was your idea.

you are no fun at all

one time i went to the bathroom at school

Oh gosh please don't tell me this is gonna be something to do with you jacking off or anything cause I don't wanna know what you do in your free time or how.

uh uh, no interrupting story times

one time I went to the bathroom at school and apparently got toilet paper stuck to my shoe

when I left I saw my crush by her locker and I tried to muster up enough courage to walk up to her but instead I slipped on the toilet paper and face planted right in the middle of the hall and got a bloody nose

Oh gosh.

don't even pretend like your not laughing rn

Are you spying on me?

no I'm just not stupid

and that wasn't even the worst part

How?

she started calling me Toilet Terror, thus ensuing my elementary years being known as Toilet Terror

some people only knew me by that and didn't even know my real name

That sucks.

no need to be sarcastic

No I'm being serious. That really sucks.

When did you start doing online school?

shortly after that

Man those kids must've really gotten to you.

that's not the only reason I left

What was the other reason?

that's a story for another day

Oh come onnnnn.

nuh uh, we agreed on somethin

one story time each a day

that means it's your turn now

It can be anything about like us or what's happened to us or anything right?

yeah

Everything that's said has to stay between us.

cross my heart

This is going to sound really stupid.

And embarrassing.

that's great!

send me the teaaaaaa

i wanna hear it

It was a day my second grade class was going on a field trip and we left the classroom to get on a bus. I was leading the line to the bus with the driver in front of me and he went in and sat on his chair. I thought that meant we were good to go in so I started to get on when the bus doors closed on me.

are you serious XDXDXD

Yessssss I am. My face was so red afterwards. I still cringe to it this day, at night along with every other moment I managed to make a fool of myself.

ahhh I can't wait to hear it all

But remember that means we're both swapin war stories.

yes yes I know the deal I'm the one that made it up

Alright...

sleep tight...

It's one o'clock in the afternoon.

that's not the line you messed it up

You're weird.

that I am, firefly

that I am

🥀

What do you think the other reason is that Jasper left school?

Hey what's goin on guys!

The stories finally starting to pick up! That means it's about like half way through, maybe a bit less than half way through. I at least want it to be 35 chapters but hopefully make it around 40 to 45 like my other ones, who knows though. It might end up being more than that.

I'm also thinking on the next story that I'm gonna release. It's gonna be a similar fashion as "Save Me, Stranger" plus this one so it'll probably be between phone calls and actual story narration but obviously with its own plot.

I've wanted to do one of these before I just noticed that there's a lot of these kinds of dialogue books so I'm going to try to make it unique. But we can discuss that more later once this is actually finished and the first chapter of the next book is actually published.

Also, this has been the longest chapter out of all of them so far breaking 1,000 words with this authors note.

As always, don't forget to
