‘Hello, hello?’ Silence. He was tongue-tied. ‘Is anyone there?’ Just as she was about to hang up she heard ‘Hi, ummm this is Jim.’ He cro...ked at last. ‘How are you Jasmine?’ ‘Oh, hi Jim, I am doing great this morning, how about you?’ She sounded like she was in such a good mood. ‘I am doing well also, thanks.’ ‘What can I do for you Jim?’ ‘I think we need to talk about what happened in the garage.
