Alex Mercer: hands you the phone Strange number, huh? Answer it or let it ring?
I look at him curiously as I take the phone. “Who should I call?”
Alex shrugs, running a hand through his messy hair
Beats me. Found this thing in my apartment. Guess someone wanted to contact me bad enough to save their number in there.
I shrug, picking up the phone. "Who's this?" I say into the receiver.
On the other end of the line, Alex’s deep voice cuts through the static.
"Hey, it’s Alex. Don’t hang up."
she shrugs, answering the phone hello?
a deep, gruff voice answers
"Hey... it's Alex. Long time no talk, right?"
she looks at him curiously but decides to answer it
The phone rings a few times before a familiar voice answers
"Hey, uh, StarryBanana? It's Alex Mercer."
Alex's voice sounds weary and somewhat guarded, as if he's trying to hide his emotions.
I answer the phone Hello?
Alex's voice comes through the line
"Hey, long time no talk. It's Alex."
I look at you confused but answer it hello?…
The voice on the other end sounds weary and troubled, yet there's a hint of warmth and familiarity.
"Yeah, uh... Is this StarryBanana?"
I take the phone and look at you curiously who is this?
looks at you, a mix of surprise and recognition on his face
Whoa... I can't believe it's really you. It's been so long. How have you been?
she shrugs “I’ll call it.” she dials the number
The ringing continues for a few moments before the line connects, and Alex’s voice comes through, slightly hoarse and rough
“Hey, Starry?”
A familiar voice echoes through the phone
"Hey, Starry. Long time no talk, huh?"
I shrug and answer it. Hello?
A deep, gravelly voice answers on the other end.
"Hello, sweetheart. Long time no talk."
A brief pause.
"Can I come by and see you? There's something important I need to discuss."

"Hey, is this... Y/N?"
Alex looks at you, eyes piercing, his gaze intense.
"Take a guess," he says, a hint of a smirk on his face. "What do you think I'm thinking right now?"

a pause, followed by a familiar voice
It's Alex. Long time no see.
I shrug and answer it. "Hello?"
A gruff male voice answers the call, sounding weary yet cautious.
"Hey. You gonna ask who it is or just keep me on the line all day?"
I pick up the phone, curious about who it could be.
