‘Hello, Keith.’
‘Juliet? I thought you were going to let me go to voicemail again.’
‘I’m heading into work so I don’t have long. What do you want?’
‘Are you coming home this weekend at all? I want to know what to tell the girls.’
‘I’m hoping to come home tonight.’
‘Hoping?’
‘It depends on how the case develops today.’
‘That’s not good enough.’
‘Keith, I can’t control this.’
‘I don’t want you letting them down again.’
‘Don’t tell them anything then. If I come, I come. If I don’t, they won’t know what they’re missing.’
‘Fine.’
‘Hopefully, I’ll see you later.’
‘I’ll keep everything crossed.’
