I Called Myself
It was the end of the school day, and John was waiting outside the school gates for Ian, who eventually turned up.
"Hey John, I got a brand new phone yesterday!" Squealed Ian, waving his phon around excitedly to his best friend.
"Woah, that's one nice phone!" Complimented John, while staring at the phone in awe.
"Yeah, it is. My dad brought it for me because I got great results in my exams!" Agreed Ian.
"That's great! You're so lucky, I never had a phone before." Sighed John.
"It's ok! If you want, you could come home with me, and we could play around with the phone! I could let you try a few things!" Offered Ian.
John approved of this, and followed Ian home. Ian's mom was waiting for him at the front door, wearing a fluffy white robe in the hot and sunny weather.
"Hi sweetie!" I suppose you brought a friend with you today! Com on in, and I'll get a few snacks ready for you two!" Said Ians mum brightly, letting the two friends in. Ian beamed at his jolly mum.
Immediately, Ian and John rushed upstairs, and leaped onto the bed in Ians bedroom. Ian carefully got his phone out from his pocket, not intending to make a single scratch.
"Now, let's have some fun!" Grinned John, who was waiting impatiently.
Before doing anything, Ian went to the 'App Store' and downloaded a bunch of two-player games from himself and John to play. They were enjoying themselves and having tonnes of fun when John had an idea.
"Hey Ian, why don't you try calling yourself, it would be so funny! I have always wanted to try that!"
Ian giggled at the idea, and wanted to try it out just as much as John did.
"Haha! That's an awesome idea!" Chuckled Ian, while looking for the 'Phone' app. He clicked on it, and cautiosly tapped on the buttons that made up his phone number. Ian let John click on the bright green call button, and waited for the ringing on his phone to start. Instead, something completely random occurred. Somebody picked up.
