Wrong Number
...then my phone starts ringing, I'm on the train and my phone starts ringing. I know, I know, I hate this. I have complained about people talking on their phones before, I know, I get it. But I'm a hypocrite so I answer it- I could lie and pretend I didn't but I'm a seeker, a truth teller, so I'll shoot straight- it rings and I answer it.
Well I try to.
It malfunctions and the answer button stops working, the phone just keeps ringing and now everyone is looking at me like i'm some kinda idiot because i can't shut the damn phone up from ringing and i hit the buttons with my fingers and i stab the digits with my digits but it does no good and the commuters are looking at me in disgust as the noise polluter that i have become and i'm sorry everyone i can't control it it is controlling me and then-
a message appears: 'database error'
what database?
it's a phone...
How can you have a database? i ask, you're a phone!
it switches itself off
it serves me right
