Wake Up

The frown on Jefri's forehead deepened as he realized something really fishy here. Was this someone else who sounded like Renessa? But… why? Did Rudy prank him? For what? The girl wasn't even pretending to sound weak and in pain.

"Uncle Jeff? Are you there" Renessa's voice snapped Jefri out of his thoughts.

"Yes, yes, what did you say?" Jefri asked, trying to focus on his conversation with Renessa. He calmed himself down and tried to extract as much information about the caller as possible. Either the woman on the other side of the phone was really Renessa or just someone pretending to be Renessa.

The woman on the other side of the phone chuckled at Jefri's question, "Am I disturbing you?"

"No, you're not. I'm just not focused because of all the work I've been doing," Jefri answered as casually as he could.

"Ah, so you are busy right now. I must have disturbed you." Renessa said apologetically.
