"It's almost two in the noon"
A murmur crawled up between Aspen's lips. His brows wrinkled. Annoyed.
How come Vera had not appeared despite the promise she gave?
She was supposed to be with him by now. "She's not the type to get in trouble. Ezra Kingston won't let anyone hurt her"
Pressing the temples, Aspen groaned. What was taking her so long?!
Impatiently, Aspen began to pace around the living room. Checking the time often.
An hour passed. Only calories burned, no one appeared at the doorsteps. "For fuck's sake, will she even come to me?!"
Frustrated, Aspen stepped out. He should buy the phone alone at this point.
Vera was not making contact. He had to stand on his own! But they were only simple thoughts he had of course.
Once Aspen started walking alone, to get the phone for himself, he met the men.
The men sent by his grandfather. "Fuck fuck fuck. They are so fast!"
