Friya felt the tightening of her chest. Resisting a slip of words out of her tongue, she shut it tight for a few moments. She left him hanging for a while.

"Ms. Friya Lee, are you still there?" she dazed back to reality. Puffing some of the air from his cheeks, she nodded and said yes. Sean breathed a sigh of relief. He thought something happened to her.
