Jenna McKinnon smiles to herself as she walks out of 221B and onto the street, heading towards Hyde Park.

"That was easier than expected." she thinks as she hails a taxi. "I deserve a nice cab drive."

"Where to, miss?" asks the cabbie tiredly.

"Hyde Park, please." she answers. He sighs and puts the car in gear and pulls out.

Jenna leans back her head and closes her eyes, satisfied. "I'm even early." she thinks smugly. "Jim will be pleased."

The cab jolts to a stop soon after. She sits up hurriedly and looks about.

"We're here, miss. That'll be £12.48." he says.

She hands him £15.00 and says quickly, "Keep the change." as she hops out of the taxi.

"Thank you miss!" the driver shouts out the window as he drives away.

She shakes her head. 'Ordinary people. Aren't they adorable?"

Jenna makes her way to a bench in the shade and sits down. She then pulls out her mobile to text her employer.

I'm waiting. xx  -Jen

His reply came seconds later.

Already? I do hope you got the job done. -M

She sighs. She finds his total lack of faith in her annoying.

Of course I did, Jim. When have you ever known me to quit before I've finished? -Jen

She smirks, laughing inwardly at the innuendo.

His response returns quickly.

Very funny. I'm on my way. I hope I won't have to kill you. That would put a damper on your day, don't you think? -M

She reads the text quickly, and decides it's best not to respond.
