I was confused when I heard a different masculine voice at the other line The voice was a bit deeper and had an accent in it

”W-who's this?”

That person deeply breaths at the other line, ”This is his cousin”

My hands were getting cold from my fear Why would Nate's cousin call me in Nate's phone? Why?

”W-why did you call?”

”It's Nate he”

”What happened? Where is he? Let etting scared It's because the tone of the guy in the other line, it's like he'll say soood

My whole body relaxed at Nate's voice

”I'm really sorry for what my cousin did- don't be noisy -I' at the other line, ”hello? He ca a beautiful lady's voice” Nate laughs at the other line asto fade

Why was it at that instant, I was scared?

”By the way” Nate's voice began to turn serious that's why my smile disappears, ”I'm sorry”

”Ha? Why?”

”Because I didn't even contact you during this Christmas break”

I smiled at what he said, ”It's fine”

”Ianne” Why is that every tiet tense?

”Hmm?”

My heartbeat fastened at what he said I couldn't help but sine Nate's face
