Wednesday 1st of August
12:54 pm - Killua: get your ass over here sis
12:54 - Gon: ???
12:54 - Killua: don't "???" me
12:54 - Gon: new phone. who dis?
12:55 - Killua: are you making fun of me?
12:55 - Gon: are you sure you don't have the wrong person?
12:55 -Killua: wait a minute...
Killua checked the other's phone number and realised it wasn't Alluka's. Killua typed in a hurry so he mistook it for one digit. What a peculiar coincidence... and this person actually responded to his rambling.
12:56 - Killua: sorry dude I had the wrong number. That is if you're a guy, if not my bad.
12:56 - Gon: don't worry about it. It happens. And yeah, I'm a guy haha
12:57 - Gon: were you trying to reach your sister?
12:57 - I did
He then switched to message the real Alluka only to hear a knock on his door.
- Big bro, what are you doing?
- I was trying to text you but turns out you were faster than me. He grinned.
- Apparently you weren't trying hard enough I didn't receive no text. She said planting herself on Killua's bed.
- Yeah, I accidentally texted some unknown dude.
- Oh, really? Alluka eagerly took a look at the other's phone. A buzz could be heard just then.
13:04 - Gon: so did you succeed?
13:04 - Killua: yeah I found her
13:05 - Gon: cool
Killua wrinkled his nose confused.
- What? Is that mysterious dude again? Alluka asked mildly interested.
- Yeah, he just checked up on me. Even though we're total strangers.
- So what did you need me for bro?
- Right. I wanted to ask if you've done your summer homework. Killua turned all serious and parent-like.
- Oh brother come onnn. School doesn't start for another month, what are you, my dad? Not even he cares.
Killua ruffled his little sister's smooth hair.
- Exactly. If he is not going to take care of you, I will. And I want you to finish your last year of middle school well so you can get into your dream high school. Just like I did.
He sofly smiled.
- You are smart little sis. I know you can achieve whatever you put your mind to. Just like your big bro.
- Way to be modest brother. I guess I'm just lazy.
- So am I but still...
Alluka wanted to quickly change the subject so she remembered about the previous incident.
- So, did you ask that guy's name?
- Why would I do that? Killua furrowed his brows.
- Because it seems interesting. And there's nothing entertaining to do for now.
- So I'm your source of entertainment I assume? Killua raised a brow teasingly.
- Yeah, as always. Love you, bro. She giggled and started to run before Killua could catch her.
Later that day, the cotton haired boy was unsure what to do. He checked his inbox and saw that Gon didn't say anything else after the concise "cool". Should he ask for his name just like Alluka said? He was bored so why not? But wouldn't that seem creepy right off the bat? He rumpled his hair and just when he put down his phone, the message notification rang. Killua winced startled.
17:45 - Gon: I never asked for your name ^^
17:46 - Killua: why should you? We don't really know each other
The white haired boy face-palmed. Was this really what he wanted to say?
17:46 - Gon: But we could! :)
17:46 - Gon: I am not a stalker I swear haha.
17:46 - Gon: look, I'll tell you mine. My name is Gon. Nice to meet ya!~
Killua sighed.
17:46 - Killua: alright. I'm Killua. Nice to meet you too I guess internet stranger
17:47 - Gon: Wow. That's a cool name.
17:47 - Killua: Yours is interesting as well. Never heard of it.
17:47 - Gon: my friends tend to make fun of it because y'know... whenever I'm missing they say stuff like: Gon is probably *gone* or Gon has probably *gone* somewhere by himself again.
Killua smiled.
17:47 - Killua: Yeah I see what you did there.
17:48 - Gon: :) so how old are you Killua?
17:48 - Killua: I'm not sure I can disclose such sensitive info right off the bat
17:48 - Gon: haha. I know what you're talking about. My aunt Mito told me not to talk to strangers either but here I am
17:49 - Killua: what if I'm a killer? What if you're a murderer? Guess we'll never know ;)
17:49 - Gon: but you seem nice. I wouldn't think of you as a bad person
17:49 - Killua: don't be so gullible. I could be faking it and lie to you and you'd never know. That's how the world works Gon. Pretty cruel huh?
17:50 - Gon: haha, you seem so mature. Probably the way your parents raised you.
At the mention of his appalling family Killua shuddered.
17:50 - Killua: no way. They are horrible.
I can only call family my cute little sister and that would be it. What about you Gon?
17:51 - Gon: well my dad abandoned me when I was little and my mom died giving birth to me so it's been my aunt and I ever since. But Mito-san is great, I consider her to be the real mother I never had.
17:51 - Killua: oh, I'm sorry to hear about your parents.
17:51 - Gon: don't worry about it. i'm used to things being like that for quite a while :)
17:52 - Gon: so you're not going to tell me your age? For all I know I could be talking to an old geezer.
Upon reading the text Killua laughed.
17:52 - Killua: gimme a break. you're the shady one here. if you must know I turned 17 recently.
17:52 - Gon: wow really? We're about the same age. I recently turned 18.
17:53 - Killua: if you're not lying that's some coincidence we got there.
17:53 - Gon: Killuaa why would I lie?
17:53 - Gon: actually scratch that.
17:53 - Killua: so you're older than me.
17:54 - Gon: and wiser.
17:54 - Killua: haha. You wish.
They have been chatting for a while Killua noticed.
17:55 - Killua: I have to go and make something to eat for me and my sis. uhm... talk to you later i guess?
17:55 - Gon: Sure. Later Killua. It was nice talking to you.
Killua wanted to type "likewise" but he stopped and left his bedroom.
