Locked

After taking a moment, Nora finally attended the call and asked, "Why are you looking for me?"

"Where is my wife?" came Darren's question making Nora's face twitch. 

No wonder he called her! If it had nothing to do with his wife, why else would he call her? 

"She is not with me," replied Nora.

"What?" Darren's voice changed. "She went out of the room with you. Why isn't she with you?"

Nora snorted, "She isn't a toy that I can fit in my pocket. She can go wherever she wants to."

"Nora," Darren's voice darkened even more. "Stop troubling me like this. Just tell me where is my Sweets?"

"She really isn't with me," said Nora. "I just told you. Why don't you believe me?"

"I get it," he said. "Even if she isn't with you, you must know where she is."

"I do," replied Nora with a cheeky smile. "But why should I tell you?"

"Are you kidding me?!" exclaimed Darren. "Is this really time for joking around?"
