Beep. Beep. Beep.
I can hear beeping sounds coming from my watch as I dial Misty's number.
Suddenly, she picks up her call…
(Hello, honey~)
"Hi, dear…." I reply cautiously. I don't say much because her voice sounds exhausted.
(Honey, are you there…?)
"Yeah, I'm sorry. I think there was a connection problem. Why is your voice different tonight?"
(I woke up in the evening and started making dinner for you, so I'm quite exhausted. Yeah, I know that you might be thinking that vampire food doesn't take much time to cook, but this food is a little different. It's something you haven't tasted before. I took my time to prepare it.)
"I see…."
(Mmm, you don't sound like your usual self, Jake. When are you coming home tonight?)
"Misty, I don't know how to say this, I'm very sorry. But I don't think I'm coming home tonight. I am very sorry Misty, I ha—"
(B-But t-the food….)
