Wrong Number?

He dialed the same number then.

Shit, what I have done?

Alex Carey, was the most selective one on Australia International Cricket then. Though he's a junior but still got his chance to have more intensive. He lets things happens easily. So easily that he never imagined a great sin done by him, neither intentionally nor permanently. Had enough with his fortunes and letting things happens in a sequel. Never bowed down to Sorrow, never created a sympathy. Never even imagined he could go under trouble, trouble what changed his road.

Big Bash League always made a charm and fun to each fans ad players. Junior gets the opportunity to meet with their idols. Especially they got pleased when they got chance to play with them in a certain team. But what if they're in separate team? Yeah, one could make the way... they way Alex Carey already made for him. Maybe he found each time to get it in sequence and yeah certainly finding himself I'm a ratio to fit or to fix.

"Hey here!"

Alex Carey watched Maxi is waving his hand on him. "M-me?" "Yeah you, here." Maxi told him. Carey thought- wait I can't confirm myself what I'm actually thinking? Wait wait no. He is not THAT. He is, he is a Cricketer, finding another. Yeah go carey. So he took his steps and took seat in front of Maxi. They already decided to meet up. "What happened? Are you in shock?" Maxi says first. "No nothing." Carey replied looking here and there.

"I'd be fun!" Nathan told Carey after hearing his plan to passing their time, calling on wrong numbers and disturbing people. He got stucked in on of the Payphones beside the road already filled with huge level water and storm. He stopped their car, they even couldn't watch road clearly with front glass. It'd be risk- that'd why they got themselves out of their car and went inside of payphone for having fun.

Nathan dials first, told his words to strangers but it was an old grandpa. Lol! Carey made his turn and dial another number. It was a teenager. They made a bored face- nothing is going well in here. Whether, time, miles and even phone calls. Nathan sits down, resting his back on the gate, Carey leans beside the phone and make another call- "We should try one more time." Carey tries to convince. "Go on," Nathan told him. So he turned around and dial, and this time a handsome picked,

- Hello?

- Hey handsome!

- who's it?

- Your next mistake

- What?

- Don't you remember me?

- Can you tell me your name?

- ha ha. You forget? You- are my last name

- Come on dude.

- I will be pleased if you NOW find time to meet

- Don't make jokes Dude. I'm hanging-

- Wait wait. Can I have your address to come and throw my shoe on your face that you don't remember me-

Hanged up!

"What? It was fun." Carey says as he couldn't believe it. He heard Nathan is laughing from his back. "Shut up. Let me try one more time." "Try try. It's getting slower, we gotta go few moments later." Carey again dials quickly, didn't let Nathan know he's dialing one SAME number.

- Hello!

- Hello?

- Who are you?

- Guess

- Can I know your name?

- You forget me?

- Who? Finch? You told me you're getting late for tomorrow. Is it all okay?

- I'm not Finch.

- Then? Who are you?

- Your next mistake

- W-what? [Laughing]

- mm-hmm!

- You forget me?

- I don't know exactly what you're telling dude. But yeah you can talk with me if you want I'm alone home

- If you're alone then tell me your address I'd come and talk with you

"Carey enough," Nathan says from behind. He guessed Carey is going too far.

- Are you serious? I can't do it

"Carey let's go. It'd stopped raining, we gotta go. It'd be late. Are you listening?"

- I'm serious. Just tell me

But before he could listen, Nathan hanged the phone up from his ear and gestures him to fuck off! Carey didn't react more.

One week earlier,

Alex Carey often dial wrong number cause his phone calls doesn't show his number to new call receiver. He got that chance to play. He tried two calls earlier which went well though. He didn't have intentions to have attentions or threats. It's only for fun! He dials a number thise time and he picked up from another side. It went very well than before. He even saved that unknown number on his contracts. He found something different.

And that day with his friend, he dialed the same number then.

So it goes... he dialed one or two times in a day. He literally falls in Love with that unknown guy. He can't handle himself calling him. So does he, the unknown person, has become the same...

Months later,

- Hey you didn't tell me your name

- Carey

- What?

- CAREY

- Full name?

- Alex Carey. Don't be shock that it's a nice name ha ha!

Tell me yours. Can I call you Dumb?

- [Pause]

- Hello?

- Yeah. Call me whatever you want

- Okay

- What about a meet up?

- [meet up? Carey's mind knows no bound of pleasure] Sure when?

- Tomorrow at 5 on Bombstick?

- I won't be late

- Okay

________________________

- WHAT? Are you complaining me about something?

- Don't act

- What are saying, Maxwell?

- [He pulls his phone out of his pocket, showed his number though it was unknown contact]

- What did you mean?

- We had a plan to meet up?

- WHAT? WHEN? [Shocked]

- Yesterday you told me on call. You forget?

- Ha- ha! W-wait, A-are you, I mean, are you that, that guy on C-CALL? [Carey literally lost his words]

- Yeah

- WHAT! [shouts louder] Shit What I have done?

- Why are you in such shock?

- N-nothing. Actually, I-I didn't know you're MAXWELL [He told in shaking voice as if he saw a ghost]

- [laughs] When I heard your name, I was in a shock also. A debutian made his way in International recently, deep down he made these ways? [Pinged him]

- [He decreases his eyelids] I wasn't my fault to not know you're Maxi

- Is it my fault?

- Nope

- THEN? [asks jokely]

- But-

- But I guess it wast a wrong decision making your way to your idol in both profession and personal

- Yeah I still choosed my home team- Strikers

- Hm difference I played in Stars but one more thing

- Yeah [looking aside. Feeling guilty for what he had done. Flirting his idol for months, not even asking his name, even by WRONG NUMBER? huge things Carey have to carry. He doesn't know how]

- I can be with you, in same team- I call LIFETIME I mean Can I be?

- [Carey more got shocked. Yeah he couldn't think he will offer him even after doing the shits] SURE

Maybe he will cover up things. But he isn't losing his chance.
