KNOCK~ KNOCK!
Rudy knocked on the door even though there was a doorbell.
A few seconds later, Alice's father— George, opened the door with a judging expression on his face.
"Oh, Rudy. Alice was expecting you." George then looked at Janet and continued, "And you must be Janet."
"Was?" Rudy raised his brows as he stepped inside without George moving aside to make a way for them. "Where is she now?"
"She is in her room. She got tired of waiting for you so she went to her room to grab her phone that was plugged in."
RING~ RING!
Rudy's phone rang.
"It must be her."
Rudy picked up Alice's call and greeted her normally.
[Hey! Where are you!] Rudy could sense the frustration in Alice's voice.
"I am at home, why?"
[What?! Did you forget we were supposed to go to the pool today?!]
"I didn't. Come downstairs. I am chatting with George."
[Oh… so it was you. Okay, wait for five minutes. I will be there.]
