"Give the new girl a pat on the ass for me."He hung up and only then did it sink in that Valerie had been sitting there the whole time, listening to m... side of the conversation. I wasn't used to anyone else being in the house."Take me with you where?" she asked. She tried to make her voice sound uninterested, but I could tell that wasn't the case."I have to fly out to South Dakota. It probably won't take but a day or two." And you'll just leave us here?"
