"It'd explain sending a working girl out on a house call, too." He'd been listening. Rob was good at catching on when he was given the chance, and sometimes when he wasn't. He just settled into walking behind the two men in hats.
"Or is that a regular thing? I mean sure, there are all sorts of call in or call out only ads back in our time, but here?" He really didn't know, and he wasn't sure he wanted to know. It was a disturbing idea - sending a girl into a place she may have no idea about.
He continued to walk, his hands stuff in his pockets. He'd let the grown ups talk it out; it wasn't that he felt like he was being left, but he felt that there was something more going on. Something that had to be discussed once everyone was safe, if that could ever really happen.
