Pfft, all your payphones are stupid.

In soviet Russia, the payphones call you!

I do that all the time. I got a drunk on the line once, which was really scary. He made no sense, and kept talking about someone called John, and asking which way the petrol station was. My brother likes dialling random numbers and asking if 'Bernard wants to come and play in the pussy-willow'. It's a big joke between him and his friends. *Sighs and shakes her head*

There is a pay phone in the lobby area where I work. Someone calls all the time, but no one answers it.

A Payphone is a Public Phone Booth. You know where people can go to if they're not in their homes or do not have a cell phone. It's for when people are out and about the town and they need a phone. :)

Reno reno reno!! I lub you!!!

Guess what! After finding out that information, I called the payphone down the street, and some man answered!
I was all 'Yo, yo yo yo yo!' and he said...'wei...ni hao?'

(The rest is a translation, I wrote it down so I could tell you guys!)

So I said: Oh... hi. I'm Iri. How's your day?
He said: Oh, I'm okay. A little tired, I didn't sleep.
I said: Oh, I'm sorry. Get well rested!
He said: *laughs* thanks! I'm Kai, by the way. How are you?
I: Oh, I'm fine. Locked in my house. *groans*
K: Ahh, one of the Japanese?
I: Only half Japanese. I think it's silly how they've trapped me in here.
K: Especially when the protests are over.
I: *sighs* Yeah. were you in them?
K: God, no. Of course not. I have better things to do. I'm a manager for a large law firm. I inherited the title from my father.
I: Wow! Must be rich then, aye?
K: *sighs* Yes. It's hard to find girls who don't want me for my money.
I: Oh, I'm so sorry!
K: *laughs* It's quite alright. What do you do for a living?
I: *giggles* I'm still in college, I'm only 18.
K: *laughs* That's okay. I'm 21, and yet I was forced into this stupid law business. I didn't want to do it anyway. Are you aspiring to be anything?
I: *thinks* I really wanted to be an animator, but seeing as that's almost impossible, I'll settle for being a singer.
K: Oh, that's great! I bet you have a lovely voice!
I: Thank you!
K: I'd appreciate it if you sang for me. *laughs*
I: Okay! *sings second stanza from SHE's 'Superstar'
K: *claps* Wow! You're great! What a beautiful voice!
I: *giggles* Thank you! I appreciate it. So, why you on the street, Kai?
K: Not sure. *sighs* I've been having a lonely day.
I: I'm sorry. I hope I'm making it brighter!
K: *laughs* Sure are, Iri. By the way, where are you?
I: Oh! *opens window* Look at the building at the end of the street and count 35 floors up! I mean, 34!
K: *turns, and looks* Oh! Hi Iri! *jumps and waves*
I: *shouts* HIII!!!
K: *laughs* You're so beautiful! And so strange, too. Why did you call this phone?
I: I felt like it. *giggles, waves again* You look spiffing in that suit!
K: *laughs, shows off* Don't I though? Well, I'd better be getting to work now.
I: Aww, so soon? *sad*
K: Yes, but I PROMISE that I'll come back here, to this phone, at 12.00. Is that okay?
I: *squeals* Yay! yay! Okay, bye bye Kai!
K: *chuckles* goodbye, Iri.


LOL!?

Right!
I just got off the phone with Kai, and I wrote it all down.
(I am the bomb at multi-tasking)
I waited until about 10 past to make sure he wasn't late or anything, and then I called the payphone. He picked up, and knew immediately it was me!
K: Hello, Iri.
I: *giggles* Hi Kai! What's up?
K: Ah, stuff. What's your full name, Iri?
I: Iraia Valentine. It's a mouthful, but you can call me Iri or Hu Li!
K: *laughs* Hu Li? (It means Fox)
I: Yep. It's my Chinese name. What's yours?
K: *sighs* I only have one name, which is Dong Kai. Ugly, but I don't care.
I: No, I like it! I had an ex-boyfriend who was a Dong.
K: *laughs* I'm sure he wasn't me.
I: Agreed. *giggles* So, Kai. Tell me, what tempted you to come back and talk to me?
K: I don't really know! *laughs* Your Chinese is pretty good, and I like talking to you. You have a cute voice.
I: *giggles* Not at all. I'm glad you decided to come back!
K: Of course. I ran here from the station.
I: What?! No you didn't!
K: Of course I did. *chuckles* Don't ask me why. I was kind of excited to talk to you.
I: *giggles* Me too! I was posting at on online forum all about it! That's where I got the idea to call you from. Do you speak English, Kai?
K: No, not an inch.
I: That's okay. Japanese?
K: No, not an inch.
I: You're useless, aren't you, Kai?
K: *laughs* That better have been a joke, missy, or I'm going to come up there.
I: *squeals* It was a joke!! Honest!
K: *chuckles a little, pauses* Oh, it's time for me to run back to the station. How about same times tomorrow, then?
I: *laughs* Alright! See you, Kai! Bye bye!
K: Goodbye, Iri. *hangs up*

RIGHT! I'm not going to post anymore conversations except these two. WOW I love payphones!

It's not really you as much as the enthusiasm of this "Kai", and the circumstances in witch you called him in.
