Alice's phone buzzed in her pocket. Taking it out, she saw it was her work. She looked at Will with an apologetic face. "Sorry honey, I gotta take this." Will nodded as he continued to mingle with Alyx. The phone call was her boss, she was needed at work right away to fix a critical error. She hung up the phone as she tapped her son on the shoulder. "Will, honey, that was my boss. He needs me at the office right away. We're gonna have to leave early." Will felt like he'd been punched in the gut by Mike Tyson. "B-b-but we just, we just started the after party." "I know dear, I'm sorry. I'll make it up to you and Alyx, I promise." Will turned to Alyx, looking in her eyes. "I gotta go. Thank you inviting us to the concert. This has been the best night of my life Alyx, thank you." He gave her a hug and started to leave with his mom.
