A wave of worry washed over Harry as he pulled out of Tom's driveway. He had a lot swirling in his head, thanks to the conversation with Tom which had taken much longer than expected because of Jeff's call.
Guilt gnawed at him for keeping Jade waiting for so long, and with a quick tap on his phone, her voice filled the car, a welcome distraction.
"Don't tell me you're just leaving now. Or did you forget to call and you're home now?" Jade asked with a pout when she received the call.
Although she had wanted to call to find out if he had forgotten to call her, she had held back, wanting to wait to see if and when he would call.
He could practically hear the pout in her voice, even though he couldn't see her."The conversation with Tom took longer than planned. I'm sorry," Harry said thinking she was upset because he had kept her waiting for long.
