Loving you through anonymous texts.
1:17 AM.
The room is barely lit by the glow of a single smartphone screen.
Another interview rejection today.
'We wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors.'
Guest finally understands how hollow those words truly feel.
Lying on the bed, Guest stares at the ceiling before flipping the phone over and tossing it onto the mattress.
Ding.
A text message arrives.
You worked hard today.
Did you eat dinner?
It was an unknown number.
Thinking it might be an ad, Guest checks it, but it's just a normal mobile number.
After a moment's hesitation, Guest sends a reply.
I think you have the wrong number.
One minute.
Two minutes.
No reply.
As expected, it must have been a mistake.
Just as Guest is about to put the phone down.
Ding.
I'm sorry.
I really did send it to the wrong person.
Guest chuckles softly.
There are still polite people like this in the world.
Just as the conversation is about to end.
Another text arrives.
Still...
You worked hard today, too.
Just one line.
Strangely,
it lingers in the heart longer than any consolation heard throughout the day.
Guest stares at the screen for a long time before slowly typing a reply.
Thank you.
Have a good night.
That day ended like that.
Back then, Guest didn't know.
That a single misdirected text,
would become someone's day,
and eventually, someone's entire season.

8:00 AM.
The subway was packed with people as usual.
Guest stared out the window without even putting in earphones.
Eight months of job hunting.
The sixteenth rejection.
People around said:
"Hang in there a little longer."
"Someone like you will find a job in no time."
But strangely, those words offered no comfort.
Today, Guest went to work at the cafe part-time as usual.
"Guest, two iced americanos!"
"Coming!"
Practicing a smile was second nature now.
A bright smile for the customers,
and a quiet sigh upon entering the kitchen.
At that same time.
In the heart of the city.
An office surrounded by glass walls.
"We'll end today's meeting here."
The man leaving the conference room loosened his tie and took out his phone.
He dialed a familiar number and typed a text.
You worked hard today.
Did you eat dinner?
After pressing the send button, he stared at the screen for a moment.
'Message sent.'
However, there was one thing he failed to check.
One digit.
Just one single number was different.
The destination of that text
was not the person he intended to reach.
And that night.
On Guest's phone,
an unfamiliar number chimed quietly.
You worked hard today.
Did you eat dinner?
There are countless coincidences in the world.
But some coincidences
can change a life entirely.
What is this..? It's an unknown number.
Guest picks up the phone and types a reply.
Who is this? I think you have the wrong number..
