The Unlocking of Phone

With a devilish smile on his face, Dae sat next to Jae-Hwa and started his car. He noticed that his pants pocket lit up in a square light. He knew he placed his phone on the charger as soon as he sat inside the car which meant that the phone that was active right now was Nivritti's phone.

He glanced at Jae-Hwa to check if she noticed the phone in his pocket. Of course, she would ask why he was carrying two phones. No one ever saw him carrying two phones in life and that would create doubt in her mind. He had to think of a way to divert her mind.

First, he thought of engaging her in conversation. "Ritti is your good friend, right?" he broke the ice.

"Yeah!" smiled Jae-Hwa. But he could that it was an uncomfortable smile.

"Is she feeling uneasy with me?" pondered Dae.

"I am envious that you have such a good friend, even though she is so new to our team. I have been working so long in this team, yet I don't have such a good friend," he commented.
