"Hello? May I speak to Mr. Collins please?" Maya asked timidly when the receptionist picked up on the other line, "This is Maya Mays calling from your neighborhood. I'm wondering whether it is okay for me to come by your house this evening to discuss your daughter's current situation."

"Sure thing," The man answered nervously. "We're actually leaving town this morning so I have to rush upstairs to pack for our vacation."

Maya heard the man coughing heavily before he said, "Sorry for interrupting your busy schedule. Have a great trip! See you in two weeks."

"Thanks for everything, Mr. Collins! I will see you in a couple of days! Bye!"
