Vivian couldn’t read the mood and failed to notice that her father on the other end of the call was enraged. She announced with her chest held high, “Yes! She’s currently working while I’m trying to finish my homework at home!”

Sebastian was dumbfounded and thought of something else that would require his attention. He asked, “A-Are you currently home alone?”

“Yes!”

He got increasingly frustrated when he thought something bad might happen to the little girl.

Sebastian couldn’t take it anymore. He urged, “I’ll be there in a short while! Just stay put until I’m there!”

He hung up the call, leaving the confused Vivian alone.
