INSTAFLIRT
Hannah Luff, 25, was determined to showcase her walk up Mount Maunganui to her family and friends, but especially one person in particular.
After coming up from Wellington for the Christmas and holiday break in Tauranga, Luff set off with a couple of her friends to walk up the iconic mountain.
“I thought, why not combine fitness and flirtation?” Luff said, forcing her friend to snap yet another shot in her perfectly curated hiking outfit, which was basically just gym gear.
As Hannah reached the top of the summit and after asking her friends multiple times if they liked a specific photo of her posing, she rolled with the caption “Just a casual hike” then fired it off to her 1672 follower, hoping Chad would see it and maybe interact with it.
After a couple of hours when Hannah and her friends had come down from their hike, her Insta-stress kicked in.
“Okay, it’s been two hours, and Chad still hasn’t seen it. I’m, like, so confused,” Hannah said, scrolling through her feed anxiously. She checked and rechecked her notifications. Nothing.
Not even a like. “Maybe he’s just busy… or, like, too cool to comment,” she mumbled, staring at her phone in disbelief.
Then, in the middle of her Insta-stress, Hannah noticed something—Chad had posted a story. She clicked on it eagerly, only to see a photo of him in full hunting gear with the caption, “Going hunting for four days, won’t have any reception.”
More to come.
