Hi Bas. Simple words, mundane words, and yet they shook her down to the core. His voice… She’d missed his voice. So many years since she’d last heard him speak – a live conversation, not a recording. Recordings didn’t have half the warmth of his real voice.
A warmth only rivalled by the cold of her own voice as she replied, “Why did you call?”
What could he want with her now? He had a new girlfriend. He was expecting a baby. What did he want from her, her forgiveness? Her understanding? Her benediction? If so, he was more of a dwarfnut than she ever thought.
