"What happened, Lis? It's so sudden. I mean, I'm okay with it but why?" Andien hurriedly got up from her desk and went out to find a quiet place. She didn't want Damar to see her receiving a private call during office hours.
Lisa sobbed a little from across the phone, her voice cracking. "Ndien, do you allow me or not? If not... I'll just look for a hostel first. I can't tell you over the phone... It's too long."
Hearing her best friend cry, Andien immediately became worried. Something bad clearly happened to Lisa.
"Yes, Lis, just go to my apartment now and wait in the lobby. I will go straight there after this, okay?"
"Yes, thank you so much, Ndien... I'm sorry to bother you..."
"Hey, don't be like that. You're my best friend!"
After she finished talking with Lisa on the phone, Andien returned to her desk and finished her remaining work.
