Mirry,

I know it's been a while since we last talked--and I do apologize for not dropping you a note before now...as I'm sure you know I'm back in Balize, have been for about a week now. I heard you went and got yourself moved out of Reception and into the pleasure service. I've met your replacement, fiesty little thing (but not as pretty as you of course!) I hope you're doing well, and I admit that this email is to ask for a bit of a favor.

My little sister, Julia, is in Balize now too--I've got her booked into the Grand View for now. Claude's still in Dnara and Julia never has gotten on with our other sister. Is there any way you could maybe spend a little time with her if you've got it? She could really use a shoulder right now, and quite honestly I think you're better suited for it than Claude or my other sister anyway. You've never met, but you're real easy to relax around darling, so I'm not worried. I am worried about her though, and I know there are just some things you don't tell your big brother.

I'd owe you one (and you know that's not something I like saying!). Just drop me a line or give me a call and we'll arrange something if you're able.

Thanks darling.

Ben

Ben,

Really, it's nothing. Just a strange feeling I have lately, that's all. Don't worry, okay? If anything is up, I'll let you know, I promise.

I guess we can make something possible since I'm not on the roster yet and only in training. And because I've been at Palace for such a long time, there's a few classes I am allowed to skip, why don't you bring her up tomorrow? I've got no classes and Liv will be in her office all day... Damn, Ben, I am so happy!

Poor Julia! Of course I will be happy to be that shoulder to lean on for her. I know you have your ways of spying, I just wanted to make sure you don't expect a report from me about whatever she may tell me.

I hope you drop your sister off personally tomorrow, so we can have a quick chat, okay?

Take care and see you soon,
Miranda

Mirry,

A strange feeling? Instincts are our best asset darling, if you want to talk about it--please feel free, especially if it's something you think I can help with.

Tomorrow? Should be great! I'll mention it to Julia, see if she's cool with that (can't see why not). I really do appreciate it, Mirry.

And oooh...do I detect some sort of romance and googly eyed interest in someone in your not so voice? Do share? Allow me to feel like a 12 year old girl and gossip for a moment.

Also, no--no reporting. I'll only ask if she tells you anything that I'd need to know because it's a danger to her or someone else. You can just tell me she said something, not even what, and I'll handle the actual 'grilling'. Other than that, I have no interest (well, that's not true--but I respect her privacy).

Thanks again

Ben

Ben,

As I said, it's a strange feeling, nothing I can define as yet. As if something bad's coming my way... If I knew more, I would tell, really.

Sweet, you behave like a twelve year old girl often enough... sorry, only teasing, only teasing. Well, things are happening pretty fast as it were. Remember when I bored you to death with all my babbling about Liv when I started at Palace? Well, it appears that Liv feels the same way, and now... Liv is my Ipo, Ben. Do I really have to say more?

See you (hopefully) tomorrow,
Miranda
