“His plane doesn’t land until then.”
“Did he give you a hint as to what he wanted to discuss?”
“He didn’t. He said he couldn’t talk about it on the phone. But he says he knows what happened to Boris.”
“He knows?”
Con nodded.
“I hope he’s okay. Delilah misses him so much.”
Con kissed Criss on the forehead. “Thank you for befriending her. She needs a friend.”
“No problem. I like her. And Shy likes playing with Azariah. Thank you for allowing them to have a sleepover here last weekend.”
“Worse idea ever.”
“It was not.”
“They were loud. They painted my fingernails pink.”
Criss burst out laughing. “You were so good with them.”
“Yet, they were a menace to me. They even threatened to throw me out of my own home if I didn’t sit still while they combed my hair.”
“You looked good with your hair braided back.”
“I’m traumatized I tell you.”
“Yury is the one who should be traumatized. He had to drive them all over the city to find the perfect ice cream.”
“He loved it. He didn’t complain once.”
“He was adorable with them also. Azariah is a great kid. I hope her father is okay.”
Con hugged her tightly. “Me too. Delilah told me that’s all Azariah wants for Christmas.”
“Poor baby.”
“I know. Speaking of Christmas, Shy told me what she wanted for Christmas.”
“Oh my gosh. What extravagant gift did she ask for?”
“A baby.”
“A doll?”
“No.”
“What?”
“She says she doesn’t like being the only child. She wants a baby in the house.”
“Good luck finding her one of those. What did you tell her?”
“I told her I had to ask you first.”
“Good. My answer is hell to the no.”
