The phone rings, interrupting Keitorin and Sammie.
"Hello."
Listening for a while, the sleepiness drops from his face into a more serious expression.
"I don't know...I'll try...I love you too."
Putting the phone down seemed to take all of his effort, "My brother hasn't come home yet."
Before she even opened her mouth, "No matter what happens or even if he goes to an event, he's always home on time."
Shaking her, he asks, "Where the hell is your sister?"
Shrugging off his hard grip, Keitorin answers, "My sister doesn't live here."
Getting off the bed and pulling on his sweater, he points, "Call your sister and find out where they are right now."
About to argue, she thinks better of it, "Ok."
Pulling out her phone and dialing, she hears voicemail.
"Sam, she's not picking up."
"Do you know where she lives?"
"Yeah-"
"Ok, I'll drive. Let's go."
