While Fred was still unsure of the whole wi-fi business, she was a little jealous and curious, and she had ever reason to want to keep in touch with the fellow she'd been talking to over the Internet. It was so very different, which was very nice. She liked giving the person on the other end information, and she was becoming a little attached to him.
Perhaps it was an unspoken rule, but they didn't get overly personal. Only, it was hard to avoid wanting to make a connection. A connection beyond sharing information. She had considered creating a picture file and attaching it somehow.
Unfortunately, she had to go MIA for a bit. There was a reason for it. Almost a whole month of silence.
PM: Are you there? Sorry, I've been quiet. Things got a little hairy here. I hope you're okay.
I've attached a photo to make up for it? Not that you have to look at it, and I promise it's not infected. Pretty sure it's not.
