They fell in love on houseparty - A thread
Now I’m going to take everyone back to the year 2017 and this story is set in Texas. It’s about a girl named Munira and her encounter with the well known app houseparty.
Munira was a quiet 19 year old Somali girl who lived in Texas. She had a small circle of friends Vanessa and Zak. All of them went to the same university and they all studied computer science. Her mother wanted Munira to study something like nursing or psychology
but Munira had other plans and wanted to become a software engineer instead. She was smart and didn’t want to conform to the social norms her parents wanted her to study. She was never late for lectures, and got straight A’s for all her modules. She was a parents dream
child and a lecturers dream student. A part from her academic feats she was also a loving daughter and sister, she cared for her twin siblings Samira and Hani whenever her parents weren’t at home. Her father who only had daughters always believed in his eldest daughter.
She also promised to give him the world once she became a software engineer. “I’ll build you a house in the motherland aabo” she would always say when he arrived back from his taxi shifts. Muniras social life was fairly simple, she would go to uni and then afterwards
would hang out with her friends at a local cafe. However, one day when Munira met up with Zak and Vanessa they weren’t as chatty as they normally were. They would normally speak about cool tv shows or watch funny YouTube pranks. “What are you guys on? You seem to be
so focused on your phones?” Said Munira. Zak was glued to his phone the most, he had his headphones in and kept cussing in Somali. Munira was confused, who was he swearing at? And why was Vanessa speaking to random people too thought Munira. Zak realised Munira clocked on that
he was swearing. “It’s nothing Munira, it’s just an app called houseparty. It’s fairly new and it’s really jokes too. See I’m in a room with random people from across the world.” Said Zak. “Yh same look it’s pretty cool, but don’t disturb me I’m speaking to my HP
BF right now” said Vanessa. During the week when the group would go to their 9am lectures Munira would be the only one focusing on the topic. Zak and Vanessa would keep sleeping and their lecturer professor Stevens would tell her to wake them up as they sat next to her.
This was embarrassing for Munira and she slowly realised her friends were slacking academically. After the lecture she asked them what kept making them fall asleep in the lectures, “Sorry for embarrassing you like that Munira, myself and Vanessa were on the app all night.
I was busy cussing fobs and she was busy lying to her HP boyfriend” said Zak. Munira begged them to stop, she told them exams were getting closer and that if they wanted to pass they would need to delete that app. They agreed and the group made their way to their houses.
At exactly 11:00pm Munira decided to Group FaceTime Vanessa and Zak. They would normally do this at this time and would head to bed at around 12:00am. But neither of them were picking up their phones, she was bored and those were the only friends she had. So Munira
made the reckless decision to download houseparty, she watched the app download in seconds and she finally opened it. When she opened the app someone named Rihanna and Chris added her. She was baffled so she accepted the friend request, suddenly she heard voices
shouting her name. She could see the front camera aimed at her face and quickly locked her phone, she was confused as to what was going on. “Munira, Munira” shouted the two people. She opened the app again but this time she covered her front camera, she saw both Chris and
Rihanna enter her houseparty room. “Who are you guys” whispered Munira. “It’s us loool” shouted Vanessa and Zak. She sighed with relief while Zak and Vanessa couldn’t stop laughing. She flipped her camera and Zak explained they added her through contacts and that
no one used their real name on the app. Zak further explained how to use houseparty and taught Munira how to lock the room and enter different rooms too. Before she knew it, Munira started to get the hang of houseparty. She started to join rooms with Vanessa and Zak
shouting and screaming and having probably the most fun she’s ever had in her entire life. She finally left the room and stayed on her own, suddenly a stranger named 50 entered the room. “Who’s this?” Said Munira. “Don’t worry about who’s this, who’s you?” Said 50.
Munira was automatically attracted to 50’s voice and the pair began to chat. Hours went by and the pair started to get to know each other, he said he was 21 and he lived in the same state as her. He also said he was in Uni studying mechanical engineering and shared
his dreams with Munira. After hours of chatting they exchanged instagrams and Munira then closed hp. He had

They both started to chat
even more but then Munira realised it was 5:00am and she had uni at 9. For the next few days she would go to uni half asleep after spending hours on the app with 50 who’s real name was Khadar. One night before she made her way to uni after a sleepless night she couldn’t find 50
on the app and started to get concerned. He was ignoring her insta dms and this went on for a few more nights. She kept thinking about 50, in lectures she wouldnt concentrate due to lack of sleep because of HP and her lecturer ordered her to meet him in his office due to this.
When she entered professor Steven’s office he told Munira how he realised she wasn’t paying attention in the lectures. He told her whatever she was doing, if it was drugs or partying she would need to stop it quickly or she would fail. She realised this wasn’t a joke
and agreed, the professor told Munira he would come back from the toilet and told her to stay so he could give her extra work. While she sat in the office she opened her phone and started to wave (call) 50 on hp just in case he was using the app. She kept hearing the notification
go off but it wasn’t coming from her phone. She looked at the professors desk and saw two wave notifications from “Munira” on professor steven’s phone.
