Reuben was confused to hear his father's voice instead of his mother's as he was sure that he had dialed Renee's number.
To make sure that he had called the right number, he peeked at the screen and the name on it was 'Mother' which proved that he hadn't called another number by mistake.
"Is mother there?" He inquired but was soon shushed by the man on the other side of the call.
Felix was careful to not make any noises as he sneaked out of his room so that he might converse with his son.
"Why have you called?" He repeated his earlier question once he was out of Renee's earshot.
This rude question made Reuben frown as he rolled his eyes.
'If I do not call they make me out to be an ungrateful child and when I do they treat me as though I have burdened them somehow.' He shook his head at their conflicting attitudes towards him.
"I called mom because I have something to speak to her about." He explained while pressing his temples.
