Ring.... Ring....
Crystal woke up from the sound of the ringtone of her phone. She frowned and her hand aimlessly searched for her phone on the bedside table in the dark.
She found her phone and opened her eyes slightly to look at the caller but squinted her eyes because of the bright light.
It took 20 seconds for her to adjust her eyes to the brightness and looked at the caller.
As soon as she saw who was calling, her brows tightened and she immediately answered the phone. All her sleepiness faded away as soon as she heard the news the person on the other end of the phone relayed.
Her phone slipped from her hands and she just looked at nothingness for a good few minutes. It took her sometime to absorb the news. And as soon as the reality sets in she immediately got up from the bed and changed her clothes and immediately sets off.
