THIRTY ONE

 

HARVEY AND Bo were on their way back to Stan, when the mission impossible theme tune rang out. Harvey hung his phone on the 'hands free' unit.

"Hello? Mr Harvey? This is Tee."

Harvey was surprised, "Hi Tee."

"Puku call me. She happy you pay her debt."

"She's welcome," but she should know that it was Michael's family that paid, not me."

"She want to meet you."

"That's sweet, but really not necessary."

"She has information about Mia."

"I don't think we need her anymore."

"She said she wait you on fourth floor of car park, Waterford Diamond, Sukhumvit 30, one hour. She want to see you. She feel bad about what she did."

Harvey glanced at Bo. She was signalling that they should go.

"Alright then, Tee. I'll see her."

"Thank you, I tell her you come." Harvey hung up.

"Why are we going?"

"Good thing to do. You feel better later."

"Well, I'll certainly look forward to that.”

"You make funny of me?"

"…Just a little."

About thirty minutes later, Harvey and Bo arrived at the Waterford Diamond car park and stopped at the security gate. Harvey smiled and was waved in with a military-style salute from a short Thai man with a friendly grin. They drove up to the fourth floor and waited.

Bo looked around. "…Car park quiet."

"It's the middle of the day."

"….Strange place to meet someone."

"What time is it? Are we late?"

"Not late, she say one hour."

"Yes, not the most punctual people, Thais."

"Have much traffic."

"We drove. Is this the fourth floor?"

Bo opened the car door. "I go check?"

"…If you want."

"You not come with me? Have romantic walk?"

"…A romantic walk in a car park?"

"I go by myself then."

Harvey watched her slide out and admired her pert bottom. She caught him looking. "You still like?"

"Of course I still like."

Once she was out of sight, his phone rang.

"Hello?" Harvey laughed then put his phone on speaker.

"You still love me?"

"You went around the corner to ask me that?"

"Can't do?"

"Sure you can, it's just, hold on, I'm getting another call.”
