It was an early Monday morning when Macy woke up to the sound of her phone ringing. 6AM to be exact. How long has it been since someone contacted her in the wee hours of the morning? Since Vegas, her life has turned around. People from the hospital has not bothered her aside from Todds' random phone calls here and there.

It was probably work, Macy thought. So, she pickep up her phone. When she checked the caller ID, she was surprised to see that it says O'Crowne which means, it was Oliver calling.

What the heck?! Did he finally realized that being married to her was wrong? Did he finally realized that  they should stop playing the happy married couple? There was no other reason for someone, especially a busy business man to call so early in the morning. Did he finally realized over night that he wanted his freedom of being single and he would like a divorce?! That should be it.

Wih a furrowed brow, Macy picked up the phone.

Macy: hello?

O'Crowne: good morning baby! Surprised to hear you awake.

Macy: it is rather really early. Did you finally want to divorce?

Macy heard a laugh.

Macy: come on! There's no other reason why someone like you would call me early just for nothing.

O'Crowne: hmmm... someone like me... What is that suppose to mean? That's interesting.

Macy: come on. I really want to go back to sleep... what do you really want? In case you want to take me for a walk this early, it would be a NO for me.

O'crowne: can you have lunch with me today? I will order some takeaway and we can eat at my office.

Macy: whoah. Calm your horses! Didn't we just saw each other less than 10 hours ago?

O'Crowne: I know. I just thought that we should you know, see each other more before you come back to work.

Macy: alright...

O'Crowne: wow, really?

Macy: yeah. But I will have to go to my apartment first. I desperately need to pick up my car.

O'Crowne: how about I arranged someone to pick you up then we have lunch... then I'll drive you to your apartment so you could pick up your car?

Macy: okay... sounds like a plan.

O'Crowne: see you later, baby...

Macy said goodbye and she ended the call.

She tried to go back to sleep but she couldn't. She was tossing and turning so she decided to get up and make herself a nice cup of coffee.

She tied her hair into a ponytail then she walked to the kitchen.

She found her dad sitting on one of the bar stools in the kitchen island, reading, probably today's paper. She hasn't spoken to him since the incident in Vegas. She was too scared to get scolded. Her dad wasn't the dad-daughter-speaking type. But when he spoke, it always was like everything was business. But one thing they have in common is that they both love a good coffee.

"Errhmm... good morning dad." She greeted him. He only looked at her for a few seconds then he went back to reading his paper.

"I'm making coffee, would you like one?" She asked.

"Long black for me honey." He finally answered.

She turned the coffee machine on and then started grinding some coffee beans. The only sound on the background was the whirring sound of the coffee grinder. Aside from that, it was all silence.
