Talking With Erika Over the Phone

"Why is she calling me? We haven't talked in months. Or I can say years since I never talked to her after I transmigrated to this universe. It's actually been a very, very long time since I saw her or heard her voice. And her calling me at this time… can't be a coincidence."

Rudy reluctantly answered the call, but before he could even speak, Erika spoke from the other side.

[Rudy?! Why did you take so long to pick it up?!]

'She is as bossy as ever…'

"I like to hear my ringtone, so I was dancing while you were waiting for me to pick up the phone," he joked.

[Not funny!]

"So… why did you call me all of a sudden?"

[Is it strange to call my childhood friend to ask how he is doing?] she asked in a judging tone.

"No, it's not. But you are not the type of girl to think like that. So what's the real reason?"
