Philip furrowed his eyebrows, wondering if he was hearing it right.
"Roger? Is that really you? God! It's been so long. How are you?"
"I'm... fine. Listen, I know it's been so long but is there a chance I could crash at your place tonight?"
"Wait! You mean-"
"I'm right outside."
Hanging up the phone, Philip hurriedly ran towards the door and opened it. He froze, wondering if his eyes were playing tricks on him. He walked towards Roger, lifting his arms, ready to embrace his long lost brother.
Roger got out of a red mini-cooper to greet Philip. He watched his younger brother quickly striding towards him. Soon, wide arms enveloped him as a smile formed on his younger brother's lips.
"I missed you. I'm so glad to see you again, " Philip said as Roger winced. Philip creased his brows and widened his eyes as he spotted the red stain on his brother's shirt.
