Once, twice, and finally, on the third attempt, a voice broke through the silence from the other side of the line.

The voice on the other end spoke softly, with a hint of vulnerability in their tone. "Hello, I wasn't expecting you to call me back this quickly," they began, a sense of urgency in their words. "You must be afraid the video will go viral in due time."
