THE INVESTIGATION FILE

so when are you free?

DELIVERED · 18:42 · NO RESPONSE

Common explanations: “I was busy” · “I forgot to reply” · “my phone was far” · “I saw it and answered in my head”

Timestamp analysis / Reply speed “Fast enough to prove the phone works. Slow enough to damage national morale.”

Last confirmed activity “Active on Instagram. Liking reels. Probably sending voice notes to someone’s group chat. Meanwhile, my message is aging like an archaeological artifact.”

THE 2087 DATE

Save the date / tentative

Tuesday, 14 June 2087

Maybe. If nothing comes up.

“I asked when we could meet. She said ‘soon insha’Allah.’ Beautiful phrase. Very spiritual. Very flexible. Apparently ‘soon’ means after her schedule clears, the moon feels right, Mercury apologizes, and every cousin in Morocco finishes getting married.”

MINI TIMELINE / EXPECTED DELAYS

2026:“We should meet soon.”

2034:“This week is complicated.”

2051:“After Eid maybe.”

2087:“Actually Tuesday could work, but I’ll confirm.”

“By the time the date arrives, I’ll be retired, emotionally stable, and using WhatsApp through my grandson. But I’ll still show up. On time. Like an idiot with loyalty points.”

عيد الأضحى 2026

عيد أضحى مبارك

كل عام وأنتي بألف خير يا سلمى
وعائلتك الكريمة

✶

The sheep is dancing because it doesn't know what's coming. Honestly, mood. Half of us live like that — vibing through life pretending we don't have meetings, deadlines, or sacrifices waiting for us.

But today isn't about the sheep. It's about you, your family, and a day that's supposed to feel warm even when the world is heavy.

I hope this Eid brings you the kind of joy that's loud at lunch and quiet at night. The kind that lives in family photos you'll find ten years from now. The kind that doesn't need a caption.

May your home be full. May your plate be fuller. May the people you love be the closest ones to you today.

تقبل الله منا ومنكم صالح الأعمال
وأعاده علينا وعليكم باليمن والبركات

— Kossay, still waiting for that 2087 date but happy for you today
