I replied: 'In life, we seldom find a true prson & f u evr find 1, hold on & nvr let go. Lock it up & throw away d key so dat no1 can evr tke u away from me." One day, she sent this message to me. "Keep me as a frnd & I will keep u in my heart. even if it's just through text messaging. Mikaella brought out something about me that I never knew I had I realized I could also be a romantic person. It was only then I had learned to appreciate text messages and become eager and excited everytime my phone beeped, hoping it would be her. A day would not pass without it loving and thoughtful messages from her. We only said goodbye when my alarm lock rang at 5:00 AM! I had to prepare for school! And that was also how it all started. We exchanged messages and learned so much about each other that night. That was the first and maybe the last time I met someone over the cellphone. just shuffled the last two digits of mine," she replied. I'm just a simple prson who u wake up at dis r of my nyt!!! Nway, do I know u?" I typed. I just realized I was replying to the message: "I’m not an angel, n f u want som1 2 save u, m not superman. Same number.Such determination! "Ply reply 2 dis msg & b an angel & save me frm dis abyss of emptiness!!!" I never knew why, but the message struck me. Just as I was to close my eyes and return to my dreamless sleep, the phone beeped again. I wanted to turn the unit off, but since my mother was fond of calling me at night, just to check if I was safe at home, I decided not to. They told me that having one was more convenient - they could monitor me even if they're miles away. My parents, who were always out of the country forced me to own a cellphone. I was never a 'textmaniac' - someone who enjoys texting anyone and everyone even at the wee hours of night, not to mention during the day. Again, without bothering to reply I deleted the message. "Who the hell could this be asking for a txtmate at the wee hours of the night?" I asked myself. "Hi there, again! Care 2 b my txtmate?" again, the message said.

I had just closed my eyes when I heard the message tone again.

"Hi there! Care 2 b my txtmate?" Not knowing who the sender was, I deleted the message right away and placed the phone on my bedside table, I tried to go back to sleep. My cellphone's beeping sound woke me up one night.Used to receiving important messages only, I grabbed my cell and sleepily pushed the keys and read the message.
