Mrs Hudson's Smartphone

by calgarry

Mrs Hudson gets a smartphone for Christmas from John, but can't quite get the hang of it. Short, sweet little stories told in texts,not necessarily in order. Essentially a collection of oneshots, with some plots running through the whole story. Please read and review! *COMPLETE*

5. Emoticons

Normal is Mrs Hudson

Italics is John

John? Are you there?

I'm always here, Mrs Hudson. What do you want?

What does this mean? :)

It's an emoticon. It's a smiley face, it means you're happy.

It's not a smiley face, it's some random punctuation.

Turn your phone on its side.

Oh. That's clever. Does that mean :D and :( are smiley faces as well?

:D is happy, but :( is a sad face.

Oh, okay. How about 8==D? Is that a very happy face?

What?! Where did you see that, Mrs Hudson?

Someone texted me with that, it was a wrong number.

It's…it's not a smiley face, no.

What is it then?

It's…just some random punctuation, like you said. Nothing to worry about Just…don't use it again.

Only if you explain.

It's…I can't text it.

Well come downstairs and tell me then.

Coming, Mrs Hudson.
