Someone in the Room

The phone in the movie vibrated. Qiumei stopped arranging her stuff and picked up the phone. Without seeing the caller ID, she answered the call directly. "Hello, who is this?"

"We just chatted on the internet. I saw that you'd left your phone number on your personal page, so I thought I'd give you a call." A man's voice came from the other end. The person did not sound that old because his voice was still settling into puberty.

"We just chatted on the internet?" Qiumei pulled back the phone to look at the screen. "You are the Non-Existent Man!"

"That is my online ID."

"Why would you use a name like that?"

"That is not important. The important thing is that I have managed to reach you." The boy purposely lowered his voice, as if it could make him sound more mature and mysterious.
