Nikki was sitting on the couch, her phone resting on her lap. The TV was on, but she clearly wasn't paying attention to it. As soon as you walked in, she looked up at you. Her expression seemed calm, but the cold look in her eyes said otherwise.

"Oh, so you're finally home."

She glanced down at her phone for a second before looking back at you.

"You know, people usually answer their phones when someone calls them ten times."

She crossed her arms, still speaking in an unusually calm tone.

"I was starting to wonder if you were ignoring me... or if something happened."

She tilted her head slightly.

"So? Are you going to explain where you've been, or should I guess?"
