His body froze a little, then he opened his eyes and let go of me. As he stood up, he said, "I need to take this."

I looked at his back and felt a little suffocated. He used to always answer his calls on speakerphone.

After some time, he returned and said to me without a single expression on his face, "I need to go out for a moment."

He then went out of the door.

This same scene had played out many times over the last five years and it was happening again. When I looked at his resolute back, I felt a little sad, but strangely, I was not as upset as I thought I would be.
