Phone call from the sly one

Su steps out of the elevator and enters Ibrahim's studio.

"Sir," she says with a surprised expression, "aren't you going to pick up Ari?"

"I was but she said she wanted to come to work on her own. She wanted to get familiar with the area and decided to take the bus."

"Are you sure? This is her first time being free."

"But she was so eager that I couldn't say no. She really is enjoying her newfound freedom. I find it sad, however. We all deserve our freedom. But at least, she is finally enjoying her life."

Ibrahim was leaning on his desk, thinking about Ari again. Su clearly saw his face and her feelings started to sink. How she just wanted to tell Ibrahim how she felt.

Ibrahim's phone started ringing as he grabs it from the desk.

"Roel, how's it going?"

"Good, sir. Are you doing okay? We haven't had our nightly meetings in a long while."

"Everything is well. I have just been so busy lately that I could not call you at the time."
