It didn’t seem as though there was any awkwardness on Ian’s part, for he outright asked, “Where’s Sophia?”

 

Turning partly, John glanced out the office, but he didn’t see any sign of Sophia and Zack. Thus, he answered, “She stepped out. Is anything the matter?”

Is anything the matter? After thinking for a moment, Ian said, “I’ll call her back later, then.” After saying that, he hung up right away.

Holding Sophia’s cell phone, John stared at it for a long while before snorting indifferently. He must be aware of my relationship with Sophia, else he wouldn’t have been so composed. Whoever places a call only to be answered by the callee’s husband will be slightly discomfited, but not him.

Startled, Sophia scoffed, “So, he truly hasn’t eaten, huh? Well, is there a need to be so anxious just because of a paltry matter?”
