"We've been together for six years."
Listening to him rambling on, Nora Scott impatiently frowned and directly interrupted him.
"Wha—what?"
Benjamin bit his tongue and exclaimed in surprise.
—Wasn't his mentor always single?!
—Did the call go to a parallel universe?!
Then, Nora leisurely added, "Just been in a cold war for five years in between."
Benjamin: What the heck???
What kind of bizarre love story is this, capable of a five-year cold war?!!
Five years!!!
"Mentor, this, a guy you can be in a cold war with for five years, might as well not have, right..."
An overly shocked Benjamin, his voice was almost muffled in continued persuasion.
Nora ignored him and asked, "Why did you call?"
"Oh, just wanted to ask..."
Benjamin's mind wandered as he numbly asked, "Are you at home?"
Raising an eyebrow, Nora righteously retorted, "It's so late, where else would I be if not at home?"
"..."
Benjamin silently swore in his heart, nearly collapsing and going berserk.
