"Hallo…?" Raine tried to make her voice as normal as she could, she gripped the phone tightly to suppress her feeling.
She can do this! Everything will be alright…
There was no reply from the other side of the phone for a few seconds before Torak's suspicious voice sounded. "Are you alright?" Even through the phone Torak's dominance was oozing off from his voice.
Raine nodded. "Mm." She hummed. "I just took a bath." Fortunately, her voice didn't falter, she hoped Torak didn't pick anything wrong with this.
"Did Serefina make things difficult for you?" Torak asked in a hard tone, he was concerned about this the most.
Raine shook her head and a tear fell on her cheek, but she forced herself to smile when she answered him. "No. She is in her room." She didn't lie about this.
