Upon hearing her familiar voice, Tyrone shuddered. He straightened up, a spark ignited in his eyes as if he was dreaming. Sabrina?
Yes, its me.
Well What can I do for you? he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.
Have you been drinking?
Tyrone hastily put down his glass, denying, No.
No need to lie to me. If your health deteriorates due to drinking, youll end up back in the hospital. If thats what you want, keep drinking. Youre wealthy enough to own a hospital. You can stay there indefinitely.
I apologize, Sabrina. I wont drink anymore.
Realizing hed been caught, Tyrone felt a pang of guilt. He pushed his glass away and murmured, I appreciate your concern. It makes me happy, Sabrina. Even if its just an act, Im elated. I thought youd severed all communication with me.
His words filled Sabrinas heart with an unspeakable sorrow.
Inhaling deeply, she ended the call without uttering another word.
Despite knowing that Tyrone was adept at dramatizing situations and that she should remain skeptical, Sabrina found her resolve weakening.
Nevertheless, she had made up her mind to move on and the most effective way was to ignore his plea.

That way, she wouldnt succumb to her sentiments.
Sabrina, I genuinely dont wish to end our marriage, but Im aware that you wouldnt stay by my side. Ive wounded you too deeply. I Lack the courage to even request you to stay. Ever since you left, sleep has evaded me. I miss you dearly, Sabrina
His words trailed off as the call ended.
Tyrone shut his eyes, a bitter taste filling his mouth.
He had finally mustered the courage to bare his heart.
But she wasnt there to hear it, nor did she wish to Listen anymore.
Sabrina ended the call and returned to her seat.
Noticing that Sabrina seemed in low spirits, Bettie asked casually, Who was that on the phone?
Just a friend, Sabrina replied, biting her lower Lip.
Bettie wasnt convinced. I know all your friends. Was the friend that youre referring to Tyrone?
Sabrina was speechless.
Why did he call you? Youre divorced, Bettie complained. Is he bothering you? Sabrina, dont be soft-hearted, and forgive him!
