Doctors and nurses pass in the manila hallway with stern expressions and
swift steps.
“Have you been to the Petronas Twin Towers?” Mom asks.
I’m speaking to my mom through my earpieces, and she doesn’t hear
me as well when I do that, so I’ve got the phone held up to my mouth like
it’s a microphone. None of the physicians or nurses spare me and my
mumbling a second glance.
“Riva, he’s not there for a joyride,” Dad pipes in. He’s on the line, too,
because yes, my folks still have a landline and one phone in the den and one
in the bedroom, specifically so when I call they can each easily join in on
the call.
“But surely he has some free time. You have some free time, don’t you?
There’s also the Batu cave, and you liked Chinatown in New York City
when we took you. You might like it there too.”
Mom continues reading through a list she must’ve prepared specifically
for this call when a dark-haired, middle-aged man about six-foot-one and
wearing a money suit, slows near Sloane Watson’s hospital room. My
buddy Knox approaches him.
The guy’s hands aren’t near his waist, but from this angle, I can’t tell if
he’s packing.
“Mom, Dad, I’m gonna need to go. I’ll call you in a couple of days.”
“When’s your flight—”
“Riva, you know he can’t share that.”
“Love you guys.”
I end the call but remain on the bench, wary of the suit. I increase the
volume on the earpieces, using the devices like a hearing aid.
“Can we go outside? My car’s in the parking lot.” The suit’s question to
my friend has me wondering who the hell he is. We’re in Kuala Lumpur, for
fuck’s sake. Lawyer? Unlikely. High-end hired assassin? Conceivable.
“Why would I go outside with you?” Knox asks nicer than I would’ve.
Knox and I served on the teams together. Not the same team, but we
know each other, and when we left the military for the private sector, we
joined the same outfit.
“So we can speak. Without being overheard.” Who does moneybags
think, besides me, is listening?
“And you are?” Knox asks.
“Tristan Viognier. We met once on a business call. You might remember
me as Nomad.”
Ah, that makes sense. He’s Interpol. They provided us with the intel that
led us to Sloane Watson, the woman we extracted from a hostage situation.
We’re still piecing together all the whys.
