"Man, it would be a relief if we could! Did you talk to the cops? When are we going to pick up Keith's body?"

"It's taken care of already."

"Taken care of?!" Elysia was startled.

"Yeah, the police called me this morning. I went down to the station, identified the body, and then came back."

"I know, but it wasn't the right time to go. We'll visit together later."

Elysia sighed softly, a hint of regret in her voice but didn't pry further.
