He frowned and patiently said, "You can't just have a child whenever you want."

"Mom, it's impossible between me and her..."
"Why is it impossible?" Mrs. Geoffrey got excited, "If you keep ignoring her, then it really will be impossible… Yesterday I talked to her on the phone. She said she's found a secretarial job, seems to have a new boss, and will soon be leaving T City with the new boss… Son, although I don't know what kind of person her new boss is, I can tell from her words that she really admires him. This is a dangerous sign, and I'm really afraid that Becca will just forget about you..."
He interrupted, "Mom, my phone's out of battery. Let's talk next time!"
"Son, son..."
He ended the call and tossed the phone aside casually.
