"No." Daniel Taylor said, "Anna said that she would cook tonight."
Usually, at home, Aunt Lisa was the in charge of the dinner. But today, Anna said she would cook after
coming back, and Daniel Taylor stopped Lisa to cook anything.
Lisa said, "Well, when will Anna come back? It’s over seven now."
"..." Daniel Taylor looked at the time and found that he had come back for such a long time. He
frowned. "Hasn’t she come back yet?"
Even she went to buy vegetables. She should be back till now!
"No." said Lisa.
"Wait a little longer." He was very patient with Anna.
Lisa came out.
They waited for long, even after 8 o’clock Anna didn’t come back. It was already dark outside.
Lisa came in again and said, "Daniel, would you like to call Anna to see if she has any problems? Why
hasn't she arrived yet?"
Daniel Taylor also feared if something wrong would happen to her, he hurriedly took out his mobile
phone and called Anna. After a while, Anna answered, "Sir."
"When will you be back?" Daniel Taylor’s disturbed heart calmed down for a while. He was really afraid
that something wrong might have happened to her on the way.
On the phone, Anna’s voice was a little guilty. "Sorry, I forgot to tell you that I have something urgent
here. I’m staying in the dormitory tonight. I won’t come over."
She wanted to call him, but she was so busy that she forgot.
"Urgent?" Daniel Taylor could not help frowning. He specially canceled the dinner and came back
home, he has been waiting for her for several hours, but she forgot?
Besides, if he didn’t call her by himself, she would not have thought of him.
"I’ll tell you when I get back. I’m a little busy now. I will hang up now" Anna didn’t explain anymore, and
soon hung up.
Daniel Taylor stared at the mobile phone.
Jack Smith came in from outside, "Mr. Taylor."
Jack Smith was stunned to see Daniel Taylor.
Just a happy face, that was waiting for Anna’s return had suddenly become gloomy.
Daniel Taylor looked at the figure of the girl on the paper. "She said she wouldn't come back tonight."
Jack Smith thought of Anna’s conversation with Daniel Taylor in the morning. "Is it because of what she
said in the morning?"
Anna said that she didn’t come back in the evening and will go to see a young boy for a date.
Jack Smith’s words haven’t finished when saw Daniel Taylor glaring at him.
Jack Smith felt wrong. His guess wasn’t from nowhere. Instead, what Anna has said in the morning,
exactly happened in the evening.
He could only guess like this!
He looked at Daniel Taylor but didn’t dare to face Daniel Taylor’s eyes, "I’ll let Lisa cook something to
eat."
They all waited for Anna’s dinner. As a result, they just waited and now they were starving to death.
Jack Smith went out, and Daniel Taylor put away the drawing board and paper. He was inexplicably
upset. The beautiful picture was crumple by him.
This was the first time when Anna broke her promise.
It was the first time she forgot to inform him.
Above all, he called her, but she hung up without even explaining.
He had a sense of being completely ignored.
