Maria 2

Tora remained in the dark as she watched over Darren while he slept. She turned the light off and closed the curtains so that he was undisturbed as he slept. Tora sighed softly. It was an unexpected evening but she was happy to have finally closed that past chapter. As she turned to leave, she heard a vibration, and Darren's phone lit up on the nightstand. Tora grabbed the phone and canceled the call as Darren groaned and turned in his sleep.

She left the room. She picked up the cat as he tried to enter the room and shut the door softly. "Get back." She went to her room and returned the call.

"Who is this?"

"I'm with the FBI and I would like to apologize to Mr. Kershaw on behalf of my partner. Is he around?"

"No, he's asleep," Tora said. "But I'll tell him you called."
