Ang,
Have you talked to Alicia lately? I know she's supposed to be staying quiet, but I can't help but miss her. Do you think we could meet up sometime soon? If you come over, be sure not to try and open the window without me!

It was covert enough to not draw suspicion if intercepted but clear enough to get her message across, Patricia decided; a strange new precaution she'd begun to take with all of her post. All she could do was hope that Al had spoken to Ang and decided to take going into hiding more seriously. It was a better idea than either alternative; that Alicia was avoiding her for some strange reason to do with Eddie and his injuries, or, the worst, had been caught.
Patricia tied the little scrap of paper to Briseis' leg and let her out into the dark alley, where somewhere, there was a wheezing cough.
