Chapter 75: Call From Outside
"Give me a moment." Kazi had never accepted a call so fast. "Ms. Sun-young!"
"Kazi! You’re alive! Thank god!" Her voice broke out a sigh of relief. "I thought...is William with you!?"
"He is. He’s fine, I think."
Unconscious but alive wouldn’t be the best comfort, he thought. Better to keep it vague.
"I thought both of you were dead. You disappeared from the party and now you’re back! What happened?"
"It’s a long story. Well, not long, but insane. We’ll definitely need a barbecue for it."
Sun-young laughed. He wasn’t sure if he had ever heard her laugh so openly. An infectious mirth of wonder and delight. He wondered what her expression was like.
"And you?" Kazi asked.
"Yeah, it’s an insane story." Her enthusiasm winded down. "Super insane."
"We can talk when I get back. It was nice to hear your voice." Beside him, William groaned. Kaloomte’ Yuritzi tensed up. "Okay, yeah, William is waking up. I’ll be back later. Text a rendezvous point."
"Got it."
