“Yeah, I know. The results were inconclusive, but don’t they have people watching her after she got out?” asked the hematologist with both of her hands on the wheel, driving her hybrid Mariner in the afternoon traffic. The reply on her Bluetooth earpiece started to break up as she slowly halted to a stop at a traffic light. “Hey, what was that? You’re breaking up, say again.” The broken voice in her earpiece went to static, which was very unusual for a cellular call, and then click; silence.
When she brought her vehicle to a complete stop, she looked down at her iPhone and she saw that her call had ended. She pressed the redial icon on the screen of her iPhone, but she noticed no bars on either of the networks, both cellular and G4. “Perfect, I’ve found a blind spot.”

Jessica shifted on the stool, thanking the bartender for the drink she had been given as she waited for Joseph. She was ten minutes early for their meeting; she had spoken to him on the phone the day before to arrange this meeting.
On the bartop next to her was a folder containing some information on the particular items she wanted him to procure for her. She tapped her fingers on the folder and stirred the ice around her coke with the straw, held between two long fingers.
She chewed her lower lip and leaned forward to take a couple of long drinks before she glanced around. Her hair was loose and her jeans were a little baggier than usual, after her actions of the past couple of weeks, she felt she should probably spend some time dressed rather more modestly, but she had to admit that dressing the way that she had and the way that people had looked at her had felt good.
Not to mention that night she had spent with Tseng. She chewed the inside of her lower lip and smiled to herself with the memory, though she was a little nervous about going to see him again. What if he had changed his mind?
