"(y/n)'s residence, (y/n) speaking."

"(y/n)! How are you doing? I've been trying to call you, but you must have been out. Are you available this Wednesday?"

You resisted the urge to hang up right then and there. That Colonel was persistent, you had to give him that. "No, I'm going to be cleaning my dirty house." You sighed, seeing the layer of dust on your alchemy books. "After that, I might take a day off to relax and do something."

"Perhaps you'd like to go for a drive with me?" he asked.

You shrugged, thinking it over. "Maybe. It depends on how much junk I decide to give away." You could imagine the old stuff from your deceased parents in your basement. Being an only child had its perks, but its downsides. If you had siblings, you could at least decide who gets what ...

"Did you hear a word I just said?" Roy asked. "Or were you lost in thought again?"

"In one ear, out the other." You grinned at the joke. "Care to repeat?"

"I just offered to burn it all for you," he said. "If you're too attatched to it, go ahead and keep it."

"I may take you up on that offer. If nobody wants any of these old books. Let's see ... Oh, yes! Something along the lines of Basic Alchemy and Tactics: How to Survive in War." You could see the nearly new covers of the books. "All are in good or nearly new condition."

The other end of the line was dead silent. You couldn't even hear his breathing.

"Uh ... sir?" you asked. "Are you still there?"

"What was the name of the last book?" he asked.

"Something with war ... I think. Maybe you'd like to come over and see for yourself?" You smirked at the idea, pushing your (h/c) (h/l) behind your ear. "How about Wednesday evening? I'm sure I'll be mostly done by then."

"I'll call you before I leave." Roy hung up the phone, and you followed shortly after. You could barely wait the six days to Wednesday!
