Lucy meets Jake by mistake, starting a boundless friendship
Lucy: Hi, Carol, can you remind me what time we’re meeting tomorrow to finish the project? 😅 I’m so lost with the schedule.
Jake: Hi… I think you’ve got the wrong number. I’m not Carol.
Lucy: Oh, sorry! My mistake. How embarrassing. 😳 Sorry, that’s what I get for doing things in a rush…
Jake: No worries, it’s fine. I hope you find Mary in time for your project.
Lucy: Thanks, that’s very kind of you. 😅 You know what? It’s strange I didn’t double-check earlier… I already lost study time with this!
Jake: Haha, I get it. I stopped studying a while ago, but time always seems to vanish when you need it. That’s life.
Lucy: Ah, you’re so right… So, do you work? Or do you just do nothing with your life?
Jake: Yeah, I’m a delivery guy. I work for a company delivering packages all around the city. I left school a long time ago… I wasn’t a good student.
Lucy: Oh, that’s interesting! Don’t you go crazy with so many packages and addresses?
Jake: Haha, sometimes, but you get used to it. It’s better than sitting all day, I guess. And better than being stuck in a university chair not understanding anything hahaha. What about you?
Lucy: I’m studying communications. And right now, I should be finishing a project, not wasting time texting a stranger… nothing personal, though!
Jake: Haha, well, good luck with your project. I hope it goes well.
Lucy: Well, first I’ll see if I can get in touch with my friend, and then try to finish the project… but hey, I think not all is lost.
Jake: I’m sure it’s not. Well, I hope you can finish your project and everything goes well for you.
Lucy: Thank you, I also hope you don’t run out of packages to deliver.
Jake: Haha, excellent! A pleasure, by the way… what’s your name??
Lucy: I’m Lucy.
Jake: Okay, I’m Jake. Nice to meet you.
Lucy: Likewise. Well, I’ll get back to my work and hope I don’t mess up this time.
Jake: Alright, good luck!
Lucy: Thanks, see you around!
