Thora picks up the phone and calls Chris’s office.
His secretary answers ” Chris Thorton’s office” she answered.

“Good afternoon Alice, its Thora, Chris’s girlfriend. Is he in?” Thora replied.

“Oh, hello Thora, no, hes not, hes in an editorial meeting, can I take a message. She asked.

“Yes please, have him call me”

“Will do” Alice ended the phone call.

Thora feels relieved. At least he made it to work she thought to herself.
The phone rings.

“Hello” she answers.
“Thor, Alice told me you called, whats up.”
“Hillary told me about this accident and it got me a lil worried. thats all.
“yeah” He answered, I know, I was there”.

Thora dropped the phone.
