- "Yeah I did, she's in the car with me and you're on speakerphone if you'd like to say hello" Rhode grins cheekily as I hear a small gasp from the car stereo. I don't think she'd scream at me while Rhode can hear her, but I prepare myself for an icy cold reception until I hear her quiet and sincere voice.
- "Oh Amelia darling, how are you?" The words seem to activate my tear ducts somehow and I have to swallow a small lump in my throat before I speak.
