Daily Texts [Epilogue]
Texting the ScammerHello again! this is an epilogue that no one asked for lol--well, more like little snippets of messages exchanged between the two because I needed inspiration to write something. ^^
Taeyeon: , Marry, Kill, go.
Tiffany: I’m in the middle of a meeting
Taeyeon: , marry, kill
Tiffany: Seriously, can’t this wait?
Taeyeon:
Taeyeon: Marry
Taeyeon: Kill
Tiffany: Fine. I’d my y-as- boss who is currently sitting across from me. I’d marry my coworker who I am having an affair with.
Tiffany: And last but not least, I’d kill you
Taeyeon: Really?
Tiffany: ._. Do you even have to ask?
Taeyeon: I knew something was up
Tiffany: Taeyeon, you don’t actually believe it, do you? Isn’t this just a game?
Taeyeon: I lost you. I just didn’t want to admit it. God, I feel so stupid
Tiffany: I’m calling you
Tiffany: Taeyeon, pick up!
Taeyeon: There’s no point in talking. I’m packing my stuff now
Tiffany: omg I love you okay?! I’ll and marry you!
Taeyeon: Haha, okay, I’ll see you tonight so we can start planning the wedding
Tiffany: The number you have texted is unavailable.
Taeyeon: Fany?
***
Tiffany: I miss you
Taeyeon: I miss you too. Come home
Tiffany: lol how? I’m in New York, remember?
Taeyeon: I’ll search up the flight schedule for you
Tiffany: It would be a waste of money to come back now. I’ve only been here for two days
Taeyeon: Two days too long
Tiffany: My sis will be sad if I just left. Let’s just try to make it through this week, ok?
Taeyeon: I just screamed in your pillow and kicked the blanket to the floor while the song Come Back Home by 2NE1 is playing in the background
Tiffany: That’s very mature of you lol
Taeyeon: Does that mean you’ll come home?
Tiffany: Haha no. I want to tho. I forgot how cold New York gets
Taeyeon: Would it make a difference if I said that our bed is very warm because I’m so hot right now because of you ;)
Tiffany: lol not enough to get me to spend hundreds of dollars for a flight back to Korea, sorry, Boo. And it’s understandable that I make you hot. I tend to have that kind of effect on people
Taeyeon: Wow way to not sound conceited
Tiffany: You love me anyways
Taeyeon: I do love Miss Hwang :)
Tiffany: Aw ily too <3
Taeyeon: I love Miss Tiffany Hwang’s sister <3
Tiffany: I’m going to burn my Korean passport
Taeyeon: NOOO I WAS KIDDING! COME HOME!!!
***
Taeyeon: Don’t be upset
Tiffany: Omg what did you do??
Taeyeon: You might come home to thirty boxes of girl scouts’ cookies
Tiffany: WTF TAEYEON! Are you serious?!
Taeyeon: You seem upset…
Tiffany: DUH! I’m on a diet, you !
Taeyeon: I can explain >_< it was for a good cause, I swear. Foxes are being hunted for their fur. The cute, little girl scouts said if I bought just thirty boxes, I could save the baby foxes
Tiffany: Wait…
Tiffany: Taeyeon. It’s not even girl scouts’ cookies season. What’s the front of the box look like?
Taeyeon: Um a zebra with a horn on its head
Taeyeon: Ok that’s strange. Hold on a sec
Taeyeon: Oh my god, Fany! There are rocks in all the boxes!
Tiffany: … I would very much like to strangle you when I get back
***
Tiffany: When are you coming home?
Taeyeon: Miss me already? ;)
Tiffany: Of course, I miss you very much. It’s been so long since you’ve been home
Taeyeon: I was home this morning, silly
Tiffany: You were? How come I didn’t see you?
Taeyeon: Uh, yeah lol. Did you forget this morning’s rendezvous in the kitchen? I guess it was so mindblowing that it made you forget huh
Tiffany: I’m sorry, I don’t follow
Taeyeon: Uh huh, sureee you don’t. When I get home, I’ll be sure to remind you all over again, baby
Tiffany: Um, Taeyeon, do you know who this is?
Taeyeon: The keeper of this body, my Empress Hwang. Well, at least you were this morning ;)))
Taeyeon: Let’s be secretary and president next
Tiffany: Taeyeon, I am not Tiffany
Taeyeon: Secretary Hwang then;)
Tiffany: No! Oh, dear lord, I cannot unread this from my memory.
Taeyeon: Haha oh stop with the modesty already
Tiffany: You don’t understand, Taeyeon. There’s been a mix up.
Tiffany: This is Mom. Your mom.
Taeyeon: What?
Tiffany: No, really, this is Mom. I don’t know what happened, but you’ve been messaging me, your mother
Taeyeon: But the contact ID says Tiffany. Oh, I know you’re messing with me by pretending to be my mom. Haha good one
Taeyeon: Right? Tell me you’re Tiffany
Tiffany: I am Mom, Taeyeon.
Taeyeon: Oh . Are you ing serious?
Tiffany: Language, Taeyeon! That is not something a young woman should be saying, no matter what the circumstances are. Did I not teach you better?
Taeyeon: Sorry, Mom. I gotta go. I’ll talk to you later. Bye
After shoving the key card in place, Taeyeon pushed open the door to their apartment and immediately found Tiffany lying lazily on the couch with her hand in a bowl of buttered popcorn.
“Hey, babe. How was the gym?”
Screeching like a psychotic banshee, Taeyeon lunged forward and landed unceremoniously on top of an unsuspecting Tiffany. The popped kernels went flying everywhere when Tiffany dropped the bowl due to the sudden impact of Taeyeon’s weight on top of hers.
“Taeyeon, what is wrong with you?!”
“Did you do something to my contact list?” Without waiting for a reply, Taeyeon began to shake Tiffany’s shoulder. “You did, didn’t you?! You changed my mom’s contact name to yours!”
“Oh, that. Took you long enough to figure it out.” Tiffany giggled at her childish prank.
“I can’t believe I was texting my mom this entire time.” Taeyeon lifelessly leaned back.
“I’m sure you said something embarrassing. Am I right?”
“Worse. I mentioned about this morning.”
The smile had vanished from Tiffany’s face as her eyes grew as big as an owl’s. “No, Tae, you didn’t!”
“I did! I didn’t know it wasn’t you!”
“Oh my god!” Tiffany’s hand flew over . Seconds passed by before the silence ended with Tiffany’s fit of laughter. “I cannot believe you told her about this morning!”
“You’re so dead!” Taeyeon threatened as she wiggled her fingers all over Tiffany’s stomach until the latter was struggling to breath. “Why did you do it?”
“Payback for taking Yuri to the concert instead of me.” Tiffany sniffed.
“What? They weren’t even the real Red Velvet! They were Rad Velvet! Remember I bought the tickets from some dude at some sketchy alley?” At the reminder of having paid a hundred bucks each for front row seats to a bootlegged Red Velvet group, Taeyeon felt bitter all over again. “I should’ve known better.”
“Yes, you should have known better. This is also your punishment for always getting scammed.”
“I do not always get scammed.”
Tiffany glared at her naïve and gullible girlfriend, who instantly cowered under the piercing gaze.
“Promise me you will not spend money on anything that is not a well-known company with a reputable reputation. And you must consult me first if you do.”
“Fine, I promise.”
Just then, Taeyeon’s phone vibrated. Her eyes instantly lit up once she recognized the number.
“Hello? Yes, this is Taeyeon. No way! I won?! Fany, I won a million dollars!” Taeyeon excitedly looked over to find Tiffany and her annoyed expression directed at her. Before she can accept the prize money, Tiffany had already yanked the phone out of Taeyeon’s hand.
“We’re not interested. Scam some other er, thanks.”
“Why did you do that? I just won a million—oh, oh, I see. That was a scam.”
Sighing, Tiffany tugged Taeyeon’s shirt downward so that she was snuggly pressed against her. “I love and hate how trusting you are of people.”
Taeyeon affectionately nipped at Tiffany’s lower lip. “And I love and hate your elementary school level pranks.”

“Hey, what happened?”
“I don’t know. She just hung up on me. Guess she didn’t need the money.”
“Try the runner-up then.”
