Sitting at the dining table, Rory sipped the coffee. The morning sun rays spilled in through the large windows. The birds were chirping, the dewdrops were perching on the blades of the grass like pearls.
The day has begun.
Rory didn't even finish the previous day with sleep. She didn't sleep the entire night, and though her head felt heavy, she did not feel tired at all.
Julia and Claire were in the kitchen, chatting with themselves about mundane things. They might be talking to her too, but Rory could not hear a word they said. She had tuned herself out of their conversation.
Claire cupped her hands over Rory's hands holding the coffee mug and said something. Rory tried to listen but she couldn't hear a word. She just smiled and nodded.
Her phone blinked and her eyes widened as it was an unknown number. She thought it might be Liam calling from some phone.
She answered the call immediately.
