Encryption

Today I was on the train, taking my first phone call on one, since our calls and texts. It was to help a friend with a court appearance, and I noticed a couple of people try to eavesdrop. It reminded me of you and how you’d make me LOL on purpose and draw attention to myself.
A year ago I was sitting on the train in the early hours, surrounded by other sardines and texting you. It would have been wintery, a day like today, and we’d probably been exchanging texts either giving each other shit or telling each other we were over the way life was. Instead, I run through some language apps and wait to get to work. You used to be 8(?) hours behind and telling me you couldn’t sleep.
