Jess was feeling restless.
His father found that something was wrong with him since morning, especially after he ran out and made that phone call. Before piecing everything together, he asked curiously, “Who is this ‘Jakey’, son?”
Jess thought about it and said tactfully, “My… A friend.”
He lied again: “It’s work matters. Don’t think too much about it.”
His father said, “Oh, I don’t understand much stuff regarding your work, but I think you’re going to be late. Are you not going to work yet?”
Jess was suddenly startled. His father was right. God, was wrong with him....
Jess had also told the address of his company to Jake. So, he was a little worried over him coming directly to the company. What should he do if he came?
He agonized over this all morning.
