Chapter 155: Strong Woman
Zach was gone for two days, and Keira was worried as hell. She kept on calling her dad now and then to check if Zach’s operation was going smoothly.
"Dear, stop worrying. Hasn’t he told you that he would be unreachable sometimes? They are working undercover. It’s risky for them to take personal phones on a mission like that. I haven’t received any emergency signals yet. Plus, there are no irregular movements from the underworld too, so I’m sure Zach is fine..." said the Field Marshal from the other end of the line.
"Alright dad, kiss mom for me. I’ll hang up now," said Keira before she pressed the end button on her phone.
She stood up from the sofa and out of her condo. She walked towards the adjacent unit and pressed the doorbell.
Lyra opened the door.
"No news from Big Bro yet?" asked Lyra as she let Keira in.
"Let’s have dinner together. I’m almost done with cooking," added Lyra.
Keira sighed as she sat on a chair at the dining area, watching Lyra prepare and serve the food to the table. Since yesterday, Keira was coming to have her meals with Lyra.
"How are you and Torin doing?" asked Keira simply that made Lyra cough as she choked on her saliva.
"Are you alright?" asked Keira, but then her forehead creased, seeing the reddening of Lyra’s face. Lyra was blushing. Keira suspiciously looked at her.
She could feel it with her gut, something was going on for Lyra to react like that with her simple question. Well, her question was in general, but it seemed she hit the spot.
