Gabriel was about to call Eveline, when his phone vibrated with a text message from Tiffany. His eyes narrowed as he noticed her message again, and just as he was going to ignore it like usual, she called him.
Gabriel disliked the fact that Tiffany was always speaking on Eveline's behalf rather than allowing her to speak for herself. Her insistence on speaking with him whenever they crossed paths bothered him because he never felt close enough to her to even engage, preferring to greet each other instead.
But every time she saw him, she would tell him about Eveline in a way that piqued his attention until she finished.
It was like a report she would give to him regarding Eveline.
Despite not knowing her very well, he had to be kind to her because she was Eveline's friend.
The phone continued ringing, distracting him from his thoughts, so he answered it quickly.
