It has been more than 6 hours, but Leon didn't move from his spot. He didn't even move his body. He stared at the phone screen, which also timed out and turned off after five minutes.
His eyes looked lifeless, and his breathing was getting slow as time passed. If anyone saw him, they would mistake him for a corpse.
Suddenly, his phone's screen lit up, and the phone rang.
It was a call from an unknown number.
Leon had no intention to answer the call, so he let it ring. However, five minutes passed by, and the caller kept calling. Annoyed and frustrated by his ringtone, Leon tried to cut the call, but he mistakenly answered it.
"Hello?" the voice said.
It was a female voice, and Leon teared up after hearing the voice.
"Leon? Are you awake?" the voice asked.
The caller was none other than Ida.
"Leon? Can you hear me?" she asked.
"Yes…"
Ida sighed in relief and said, "Were you busy with something? Did I disturb you?"
