"Uncle Eric, is that your girlfriend calling?"

Eric took his phone and had a look. Sure enough, it was a video call from Nadia.

Eric walked over to the balcony. He shut the glass door that separated the room from the balcony. The children did not go away. Instead, they pressed against the glass door, looking at him. Eric accepted the video call and Nadia's voice drifted from the speakers. "Eric, happy new year."
