George tapped his fingers restlessly against the phone, staring at the screen as the call rang for God knew how many times.
Still, there was no answer.
A frown creased his forehead. Anaya wasn't picking up and that wasn't like her.
He exhaled sharply running a hand through his hair. He wanted to pick her up earlier for the date, hoping they could steal some extra time together. Instead of looking forward to the evening, he was growing uneasy.
Should he just drive to her hostel? His grip tightened around his phone at the thought.
Damn. She would never like that! He muttered.
He was supposed to respect her decision regarding secrecy, or he might lose her. He groaned, shaking his head.
Then another thought struck him- what if she was still at the office, with her phone forgotten in her locker?
But why would she be? Like him, she was looking forward to this dinner. She even brought him crisps.
