I think I got played

Yesterday at 5 PM, you texted her, but she didn’t respond, gray-ticked you until 7 AM today. Yet, her status was active at 2:01 AM.

Then, out of nowhere, she brings up a police story—saying her best friend got arrested for weed, and when she tried to help, she got caught, too. She spent the night in the police cell, and she needs bail. You ask what police station but she doesn’t even know the name of the police station.

Now she’s asking for 10K, claiming she only has 3.5K in M-Pesa. She knows you’re the kind of person who helps, so you send her 6.5K out of sympathy. But when you say you want to come to the station, she refuses saying she is afraid you'll get caught up in the mess too because she also called another friend and that's what happened to her friend.

I should have known.
