"Yeah," he replied peevishly.
"Oh, hello..." she replied, mildly bewildered. "How are you doing?" she asked. She was actually curious about how he had gotten her number.
"I'm doing okay," he replied casually. "I just landed in City H for a contract signing and called you. Hope I didn't wake you up." Well, he had woken her up but he was a celebrity so she wouldn't kick his as for it. Also, he hadn't been rude to her. Such a reaction would be uncalled for.
"Don't worry about it," she reassured him, slowly getting out of bed and processing the situation.
"I'm glad you don't mind me calling this early," he paused briefly. "I was really busy for the past couple of days and wasn't able to get back to you earlier. I hope you don't think I am unwilling to collaborate with you."
