[music] After watching the vlogger's videos and seeing her in the parking lot looking like Inspector Gadget, I fled back home.
I still stand by that decision today.
What I did once I got home, that's irrelevant.
Let's just say I was in a state, but I did not call or text Audrey.
Looking back, that would have been a mistake.
Audrey sure thinks so.
The next morning, I woke up to a flood of new text messages, and when I say flood, I mean a tsunami.
I had charged my phone before going to bed, put it on silent mode, and tried to ignore it until morning.
I caved only once and looked up a few things through a search engine around one AM.
And that only made me feel more restless.
But there were no messages yet at that point.
When I picked up my phone again around five AM, it felt hot.
Turns out it was overheating because of all these texts arriving nonstop.
They came so fast it was impossible to scroll down or open any of them.
I immediately knew something was very, very wrong.
I had read about this sort of thing happening to people.
Sometimes your phone gets hacked, but that happens less than people think.
Other times, and this happens more often than you would think, someone just posts your info online and you're [beep].
