I heard a mobile phone ringing in the kitchen. Louis got up and went to get it. I took advantage of the moment to quickly text Tom to lock the library for me. He was quick to reply and tell me not to worry that he would take care of everything, which put my mind at ease. Louis returned to the living room and sat down again. It didn't look like everything was fine. If I wasn't mistaken, he seemed to be upset. What had made him change in just a few seconds?

We were about to continue talking, but I saw a woman's name appear on his mobile screen. Maybe it was an urgent work matter, so I told him to answer it. He agreed but didn't go away to answer, his voice was quite dry, and he sounded angry. I stared at the decorations in my house as if I wasn't the person who had put them there.
