After leaving.
Ashton Heath and Brandon Heath headed toward the garage together.
Brandon's phone rang. He took it out to check and answered the call.
His voice was as calm and cold as usual, indifferent, and void of any emotion.
But if you listened carefully, you could tell that it was slightly different from usual.
Ashton and Brandon had grown up together, so Ashton knew his brother even more than others.
The moment Brandon answered the call, his tone was much more gentle than usual.
"Hello."
"Yes, I'm on my way back. I should be home in an hour."
"You don't have to worry about me. Choose a movie you'd like to see; I'm fine with anything."
"If you're hungry, eat something first. Don't wait for me, you eat first, I'm not hungry yet."
"Alright, I got it. You go ahead and book the tickets then."
After a while, Brandon hung up the phone.
Ashton, his lips curved in a teasing smile, asked, "Was that your girlfriend checking in on you?"
