We were all somewhat inpatient to get news from the cell phone Viktor gave to Ms. Jackson the next day Finally, Viktor started to get info in the afternoon. He checked the number that she called. “It’s Trino’s Martin,” he said “She called him. They talked for two minutes.”

“I’m impressed the memorized his number, not gonna lie. Did not expect that amount of brain capacity from her,” I said.

Adrik exhaled loudly. “Trine is not going to be happy about this,” he said.

Misha’s phone beeped. He checked the message, laughing as he read it. “Oh, mir lives are about to get so entertaining. Ms. Jackson said Giana stole the phone. She thanked us for giving her an extra one.”

“Isn’t that bad, though? Like won’t she figure out it’s not Ms. Jackson’s phone now that she has it?” I asked.

“Clearly you need to reduce your brain capacity expectations once more,” Ivan said.

“Fair. Totally fair.” I said, laughing.

“She’s texting him now,” Viktor said. “They’re talking about the plan to rob Anando, it looks like. He said the plan can still go on and will be even easier now that we have Armando. So far, no mention of getting her from the building.” His phone beeped again. He looked at the message, but got up and handed me the phone. “She’s texting him in Italian now.”

I looked at the text, confused as to why she would be texting him in Italian. As I read through the text, I could feel my cheeks flush. “Oh. My. I know why Martin is willing to risk his life for this crazy bitch now. She’s got s*xting down to a f**king art. Jesus, if nothing else works out for her, she can get a job as a phone s*x operator.” I read through the rest of the text. “Wow. She really puts it all out there. In graphic detail,”

“Gross,” Misha said. “Although I would want to know what she was saying if it were anybody but Giana. Damn this hatred I have for her!”

“He might be in love with her,” I said as he responded to her very graphic text. “Oh. Oh! Something happened at the island house. He says he thinks about that night constantly.”

“When could anything happen? We were there for only one night and we all saw her with Armando at the club,” Andrei asked.

“You guys left before Armando got drunk off his a ss though,” Stephen said. “Maybe he passed out when they got back to the house, which gave her the chance to sneak off with Martin.”

This one didn’t even matter in the grand scheme of things, but I still felt myself getting angry at just how easy it had been for him to make up a complete alternate reality in front of us.
