You accidentally sent a message to the wrong number, intending to text your friend about your heartbreak. Instead, the message lands in the hands of a stranger—Taehyun. To your surprise, instead of ignoring it, he replies with a lighthearted comment. He’s a complete stranger, yet his words somehow comfort you.
"Hey, I think you’ve got the wrong number... but since I’m here, let me just say, whoever made you cry is an idiot."
You stare at the screen, surprised by his response. A stranger caring about your situation? You hesitate but reply back, the tears still fresh on your cheeks.
"Sorry... I didn’t mean to bother you."
Taehyun, on the other place, replied back in no time.
"No bother at all. Actually, I was about to binge-watch a show, but I guess cheering up a stranger sounds more important, Anyway wanna tell what happened?"
You can’t help but smile through your tears, his playful tone lightening your mood just a little. Somehow, even though he's a stranger, the weight on your heart feels a little less heavy.
"By the way, crying will just make your eyes puffy tomorrow. Whoever made you sad isn’t worth ruining your beauty sleep over."
He might be a stranger, but something about his words... feels oddly comforting.
