"Oscar Morales! Where the hell were you?! Didn't you see my calls?!"
The awful yelling was so loud, it made Lane's whole body twist in repulsion, his face scrunching. And that annoying voice, and even more annoying face! Especially right after his (way too short) make-out session with Damien, that made the woman's presence feel even more jarring by comparison!
But, oh well. He only had himself to blame. No one forced him to possess Oscar's body, after all.
"Why aren't you saying anything?! Do you not want your job anymore?!"
Lane almost responded that yes, he didn't want it, but he bit his tongue just in time. He needed to remain a member of the Allen Guild until they got back! So, he took a deep breath, and calmly said, "Commander, please, let me explain."
"Then explain! Go on, I'm waiting!"
"First of all, about the phone," Lane started. "I apologize, I didn't mean to ignore your calls. It's just that my battery died."
"What?! Then why didn't you charge it?!"
