Texting Troubles

'Hmm..." he messaged back.
It might have been polite disinterest.
Or just temporary textual void?
Maybe it was a dare - challenge at conversation...

Was it with a smile? a frown?

What should I reply?
Should I reply?







Should I wait?



Is he waiting for my message?


Will he text back if I don't?


Will he think I'm not interested if I don't reply?


Have I taken too long to decide?

Has he slept already?



What should I tell if he asks why I didn't reply?

What is the right answer, anyway?
