When Debbie arrived at the gate of Kasie’s block of flats, she told the driver with embarrassment that she didn’t have any money.
The cabbie was annoyed.
“Are you screwing with me? Nurse, don’t you know you have to pay for the ride?”
Debbie smiled awkwardly.
“Just a minute. Can I borrow your phone? I’LL call my friend and ask her to meethere. She can pay you.”
Left with no other option, the cabbie reluctantly handed Debbie his phone. It was either that, or risk not getting paid. At this point, he still wasn’t sure if he would.
“Kasie, where are you?” she asked, once Kasie answered.
“Outside. Glad you’re awake. What’s up? Kristina and I went to the hospital to see you this afternoon, but you were snoozing, so we left without waking you up.”
Hearing that Kasie wasn’t home, Debbie was flustered.
“You’re outside?

There was a moment of quiet on the phone. Then Emmett said on Kasie’s phone, “Debbie, we’re on our way back. Tell the cabbie we’ll be right there.”
