Katrina answers the phone in a toneless voice. "Hello."
"Katrina, I haven't seen you in a long time." Marcellus chats amiably. "Are things still that busy at work? Have you been eating and sleeping well?" No sooner had the call been answered than comes Marcellus's familiar voice, full of concern and tenderness as usual.
To avoid worrying Katrina, Marcellus doesn't mention that he had an argument with his mother earlier that afternoon. He will deal with it on his own because he loved her so much.
Katrina's heart twitches unconsciously at the familiar warm voice. Marcellus cares so deeply about her, but she is going to break up with him cruelly. She feels sad, getting an unbearable pain in her heart. She really doesn't want to leave him because Marcellus is so special to her.
Biting her bottom lip tightly, Katrina restrains herself from giving away her feelings.
