"Riss, you have the number right? You're a friend of Evans' parents, you must have their number," said Gerry again.
"Yeah, I'll send this later. Okay, I'll turn off the phone first, because Billy's plane is about to take off."
"Okay, then. Be careful, don't forget to send it," Gerry reminded again.
"Yeah, nagging, okay, I turned off the phone," Clarissa immediately turned off the phone, ignoring Gerry again.
"What did Gerry say?" asked Billy.
"He said greetings to you, be careful on the road. Then he said why didn't you meet him first, when he really wanted to meet you," Clarissa answered. She didn't tell Billy about Evans, because Billy would have misunderstood and thought Clarissa was still in close contact with Johan and his family. So Clarissa chose not to tell the truth.
"All that time calling just talking about it?" asked Billy again.
"Yes. The rest were talking about Mammy, and asking where I was," Clarissa answered.
