She was not sure of what Sierra had told Milton followingly. However, in the next second, she heard a loud bang sound which was followed by momentary silence after it.

Just as Amelia was in the midst of confusion, Sierra began to speak over the phone, "Um... Amelia.

Milton said that he isn't feeling well today. But you don't have to worry. He said that he will call you back after his sleep."

It was not hard to tell from Sierra's hesitation that Milton's illness was just an excuse to cover up for Milton. The truth was that he had refused to talk to her.

Amelia's heart sank at the thought of this. She tried to ease it off, "Alright then, Sierra. Since Milton is feeling under the weather, it'd be better for him to rest for now. Please ask him to call me back when he's feeling much better. Otherwise, I'll be worried of him."

"No problem." Sierra exclaimed all of a sudden, "Eh, hold on! He's coming out again!"

Amelia immediately straightened herself upon hearing this, "Please pass the phone to him, Sierra. Let me talk to him!"

It was another momentary silence before Sierra spoke again, "Eh, he had already closed the door. But he got a message for you."

It seemed like Sierra was longer keen to cover up for Milton.

Amelia asked, "Sierra, what message is that?"

"He asked you to come here so that you can talk to him in person. What's going on between the two of you? Had you two entered a fight?" Sierra asked concerningly.

Amelia brushed it off casually, "Sierra, you don't have to be worried. We had some arguments that's all. It's not unusual between us. Well, I'll come over tomorrow after work."

Sierra could not help grumbling, "Milton still haven't learn to act like a grown-up. Why must he waste his time on sulking with you? After all, it's not that he can come back here often."

Amelia immediately explained, "Sierra, this has nothing to do with him. It's my fault after all. I might have offended him due to miscommunication. I'll explain to you myself tomorrow when I'm there."

Her last sentence was meant to comfort Sierra. In fact, she had not planned to tell her the truth.

Sierra replied, "Well, please stay for dinner tomorrow before you return to Land of Fragrance. Milton can drive you back if it's too late."
