"She seems dull today," one of the warriors remarked, thinking that I couldn't hear him.
Another one agreed with him, "Yeah. I can see that. I've heard that Luna Tamia called her in her office, but she refused."
"Why bother?" another one remarked, "None of us is called in her office. Then why her? Just because she has different body parts than the rest of us."
I bent my head a little to hide the smile.
"Phoenix," the cafe manager took the seat across from me, "Should I ask the chefs to make you something else?" Concern was written on his face.
I shook my head with a smile, "No. I'm good," I said casually, eating my greens. Otherwise, they all might have thought that I was avoiding it.
I was gulping down the salad with lemon-infused water when the phone in my pocket started ringing.
I pulled it out and wanted to roll my eyes when I saw Luna Tamia's name flashing, "Yes?" I tucked it in the crook of my neck and kept eating my meal.
