Reunited - I

~London~

Currently, it had been more than an hour for Tobey to have taken away her phone. It did nothing else, but give more into her anxiety, and at the moment, her leg was shaking non-stop. She kept checking time repeatedly, and that seemed to be irritating Alfred. He had a frown on his face, more prominent than the one he always had.

"Would you like to have a glass of water?" Alfred offered. "You're already anxious so I will not offer you coffee. Perhaps, something to eat?"

Something to eat. What could she eat?

Thousands of pictures of different food flashed through her mind, but nothing looked appetizing at the moment. "No, thank you."

How long was it going to take for Tobey to come back with something? Is that how much Adrian has to wait for something to be done? How was he not anxious all day?

The door opened, and Joyce jumped to her feet.
