The answering machine picked up again and James heard his own voice once again saying to leave a message.
"Lisa are you there? Please pick up. Alright, I'll try again later or call us er I mean me, at the hotel. Just say there was an emergency at work and you needed to know where a file was or something like that and I will call you back when I can. Bye."
James hung up the phone and didn't know what he should do next. With everything that had happened he felt exhausted and just wanted to close his eyes for a little while. Reluctantly he went back up to the bedroom and say Jack asleep on the bed. James took off his shoes and socks and looked at the uncomfortable looking couch and thought about sleeping on it, but before he knew what he was doing he was heading over to the bed and crawling under the covers. James was asleep in no time at all.
