Lemira turned and headed back to her bedroom, hoping to shake off the day's events.

Meanwhile, Orion was waiting outside when Lemira's phone began to ring.

Peering at the caller ID, he saw it was Matthew and answered, "I bet you're home by now. Got something pretty big to talk about."

Matthew, sweating bullets, blurted out, "Why are you answering her phone?"

"Disappointed? What's so important? Go on."

Orion narrowed his eyes, suspicious of Matthew's late call.
