The Same Person

By the time Zaki felt the cellphone in his hand kept vibrating non-stop, he could only sigh and decided to break the silence enveloping the dining room.

He cleared out his throat and as soon as the sound he made reached their ears, the girl turned towards him.

"Sorry for the intrusion... your husband need to answer this call so..." Zaki said as he smiled forcefully at her when Davi immediately replied.

"No, it's fine." She said and she's about to stand and leave when the man stopped her.

"No, no, you don't need to leave. This is not confidential or anything." he said and Davi sat back.

Zaki then moved towards Sei and reached out the cellphone in front of him.

"They wanted to talk to you. They've been calling nonstop now." He said and Sei could only took the phone with an uninterested expression.

He answered the call and listened quietly.

"Hello? Sei?" the voice of their adoptive mother rang and Sei just replied with an "Mm."
