It was quiet in the room. There were only heavy heartbeats and slow breaths of them.

All of a sudden, a ringtone broke the peace.

When Zac picked up the phone, she opened her eyes and glanced at the screen secretly. Soon her heart sank into the bottom of the Arctic Ocean.

It was from Leila.

Not wanting to wake her up, Zac got up quietly and went outside to answer the phone.

Zac didn't come back for several days, which made Leila uncomfortable. She was afraid that he would have another woman. Zac didn't want to talk more with her. He hung up after telling her that he would go back tonight.

Hazel was still in a trance. She didn't open her eyes until Zac walked in. "I'm leaving," she said. Although it was only a few words, it was mixed with infinite sadness.

She had taken another woman's husband away from her, and it was time for her to get him back.
