Thank God, you are okay, its so good to hear your voice again" Kaia said amidst laughter and tears.
"Likewise Kaia, I heard about Kevin….I'm so sorry" Dave said.
"Yea, me too"
"How are you feeling about all that?"
"Still recovering, and you should do too and quickly…..i need you back on your feet" Kaia said.
"Yeaaaaahhhh, I need my feet back on the ground myself, tired of all this hospital food…now I understand why people are so eager to get out of this place"
kaia laughed.
"Get out of there and I will get you the best Sushi in all of Vegas"
"Is that a promise?" Dave said.
"Yep, it is" Kaia laughed.
"Good, coz I am taking no rain checks at all" Dave said and Kaia laughed.
"Its really good to have you back Dave"
She heard him sigh.
"It's good to be back, heard anything form Leia?"
"Leia is missing Dave"
"What?"
"Kay called and…"
"Who the hell is Kay?"
"He does her make-up" Kaia said.
"Oh, what do you mean by missing?"
"There was a gas attack in Sefrou, and they think it is her"
"That is insane"
"No its not, before that, there were missile attacks on the Caliphate base and the Sheiks house…the Sheik wants to retaliate, he thinks she is a spy"
"Good God" kaia heard him say over the phone.
"Yea, we don't know where she is now but Kay thinks he could help, Dante is here, he has a plan"
"Dante…..you found him?"
"Yea, your pretty hot investigator actually did"
"What is the plan?"
U.S Embassy, Morocco
"I demand to speak with the Ambassador now"
"I'm sorry sir but he…."
"I care less if he is on his honeymoon" Khalid screamed at the woamn supposed to be his Personal Assistant.
Noticing the rage in his eyes she nodded and went back into the office to place the call.
Meanwhile in Sefrou…..
"He is still not answering his phone"
"He probably is a victim of the attack, he could be dead for all we know"
"I fear my brothe rwas involved with this….if he was, Casmir, would be safe"
"Lets find Jael, she could help"
kay tried to recall the path to Jael's house which was not so easy but he found it with the help of random people they'd stopped to ask.
Kay stepped out with the elderly woman and walked to the door, he knocked over and over again. After a couple of knocks, they figured they too had evacuated.
A voice confirmed it….
"There's no one there" Kay turned and so did Aunt Fathiya. She'd covered her face almost entirely with her veil.
