Lie

"Grandpa I'll talk to you later." Without waiting for his reply, Brandon hung up the call and quickly entered the cafe. 

….

Inside the cafe.

Quietly sneaking into a corner seat, he took out his phone and called Charlotte. He narrowed his eyes when he saw her gesture the man sitting right across her to keep quiet before receiving the call. 

"Where are you?" he snapped. 

"I am waiting for the doctor," she lied.

Tightening his grip around the phone, he closed his eyes and gritted his teeth. She was lying to him and that made him feel awful. Though they were not in a relationship or committed to each other yet, it still broke his heart and made him feel low. "Is the doctor there yet?" he asked, still hoping that she would stop lying and tell him the truth. 

"Hmm no, I am waiting for the doctor to arrive," she lied again. 

"So you are still at the clinic waiting for the doctor right?" 

"Yes, what happened? Do you want something?"
