At the cafe, Joanna took her to stand in front of the counter where Mrs Parker stood.
"Since you have vehemently forbids me from working today, I will take my leave...,"
"You...,"
"Take care. Do call if things get hectic. I have the feeling that I will be free throughout the remainder of today," Joanna beamed before she turned and started walking towards the exit.
Because Audrey's home was far away from the cafe, unlike the apartment distance which was trekable Joanna hailed a taxi not far away from the cafe.
She was almost at Audrey's home when her cell phone rang. Without wasting a minute she brought out her phone from her handbag and went through her recent inbox.
Her once expectant expression fell when she saw who the sender of the message was.
"It has never been in his nature to text me. He always calls instead of texting. I guess he must still be angry at me and that is why he doesn't want to hear my voice," Joanna said dejectedly.
