"Sorry to interrupt". Charlotte smiled at me as she walked into the room. "Coffee is hot and in the kitchen. Also call Jake, he's called me three times already".

Of course he had.

"We'll continue this later Leah. It was lovely to finally meet you".

Was it bad I didn't even know her name?

Regardless I was glad I got to meet her. She obviously played a big part in Jake's life. Even if I had never heard of her before now.

"Please go call him". Charlotte smiled but it didn't quite reach her eyes. Making my way into the kitchen I poured myself some coffee.

Alanna was sat at the table her head buried in her phone, her AirPods in her ears. I could hear the music from where I stood. As she pulled one out she rolled her eyes before handing me her phone. "He has no patience". She groaned.

Taking the phone from her I went out back giving myself some privacy. I wasn't sure if we are going to have another argument or not.

"You there?". He asked.

"I'm here".

"You said you would answer Leah".....

"And you said you'd call later".

"Now is later. You okay?".

"I'm okay Jake I'm with your family".
