Laura ended up buying more than she thought she would and after another two hours, Nancy and Leanna finally succeeded in persuading her to go back home. After dropping Laura home, the two girls left for their own house as well. As Leanna was driving home, she noticed that Nancy kept looking at her phone as if she was waiting for a message.
"Are you waiting for a call?" Leanna asked curiously.
"Actually, I texted David earlier today but he hasn't replied yet" Nancy said as she bit her lip.
"He must be busy since Lucas is hurt, he probably has more things to do now" Leanna rationalised making Nancy feel more at ease.
Even though David was not known for his conversational skills, he always replied to her message as soon as he saw them and it wouldn't take him this long.
