174. Meet Charlos

"Yes, it's me." Charlos' voice was deep.

Rissa removed the phone from her ear and looked at the clock. It's eleven pm. Well, she had only slept for three hours.

"Ha-have you read my message?" asked Rissa.

"Yes, I have."

Rissa was confused about what to say. She suddenly felt very awkward, like she had met Charlos for the first time. Charlos the angel, but now the angel was angry, maybe.

"Charlos, did you—"

"Where were you?" asked Charlos, cutting her off.

"I… I'm at home." Rissa was in her new house.

"Oh. Then what do you mean you want to meet me tomorrow? Are you going to Bandung?"

"Actually, I—"

"Rissa, don't go to Bandung alone! I'll go to Batam later."

Rissa narrowed her eyes. It was strange to hear Charlos say that. When will Charlos have the time to fly to Batam and meet her? For just these few days, Charlos seemed lost in the earth.
