On Sunday, Rob threw all the worries about LWC’s current situation to the back of his mind and prepared to enjoy his rest. To that effect, he didn’t even check the newspaper.

The past three days have been hectic. Things in the wrestling world have become quite stressful of late. So, he wanted to decompress for a bit and not worry about them.

His initial plan was to spend some time with Dacey. However, Dacey had a few things to do in regards to her upcoming film. So, he was left alone to relax in his home.

Rob was fine with that. In fact, he preferred such a scenario. After the hubbub in the last few days, he really wanted to have some quiet time and relax.

If he wasn’t afraid of compounding Dacey’s insecurities, he would have called Dacey himself and cancelled all plans. Luckily, Dacey got a last minute call and had to fly to the film studio regarding some costume issues.

And he really did get to enjoy his peace - at least for half a day.

Rob’s peace and quiet was broken by Todd, of all people, at noon.

When the first call came, Rob saw Todd’s number and promptly ignored it. He thought Todd might be calling to get some inside scoop now that LWC was in turmoil.

Normally, Rob wouldn’t mind providing some small scoops to maintain the relationship, but he wasn’t in the mood currently. Hence, he didn’t bother with it.

But, when the third ring came, Rob understood that it was unavoidable. His relationship with Todd was just budding and he couldn’t pretend to not see his call when he had already called thrice. Not if he didn’t want Todd to hold a grudge. So, reluctantly, he picked it up.

"Hey Todd, what can I do for you?" Rob asked tiredly.

"Rob, is it true?" Todd’s hushed voice came from the other end.
