The clock moved unrelentingly as time ticked past.

The anticipation in Yvette's eyes was gradually replaced by disappointment. She restrained her emotions over and over again, but she eventually caved and couldn't resist making a call.

The phone rang for a long time before it was finally answered.

"James, are you busy?" Yvette asked cautiously.

Yvette bit her lower lip, silencing herself as tears rolled down her cheeks.

James didn't even bother hanging up. Instead, he tossed his phone on the bed. Soon, the voices of their coupling wormed into Yvette's ears through the phone.
