Chapter Six

Sandy left Anne with Giorgio at the table and went to get the drinks.

“So how long have you known Ed?” She asked.

“We trained together in Exmouth, Devon about ten years ago. Paulo was also on the same team as us. It’s where we all met.”

Sandy came back with a tray of drinks and goodies.

“So have you kept in contact with Ed all this time?” Sandy asked.

“Yes, I have. He dropped off the radar about a year ago and I didn’t know why. Paulo found out that he had been smashed about and sent home. It’s pretty shocking to see him now.” Explained Giorgio.

“How did Paulo find out?” Sandy was getting a bit suspicious of the story being told.

Giorgio looked up towards Anne and then Sandy.

“The Colonel keeps us informed of everyone involved with the Afghan drugs supply run. Paulo met up with the Colonel a few weeks ago, to learn that Ed was here.”

“So Paulo is still working with you? He hasn’t given up his job on the front line?” Asked Sandy hurriedly.

“I’m sorry Sandy, he has definitely changed jobs. It’s just that there were a lot of loose ends to tie up after the Maldives operation. He couldn’t just walk away.” Giorgio was making a bad show of explaining things.

“Well excuse me while I make a call and tie up some loose ends of my own.” Sandy almost ran out of the café to phone Paulo.

“Well you put your foot in it there, didn’t’ you?” Said Anne.

“It’s actually better that Sandy knows the truth. Paulo has been covering his back for months now, trying to make sure Sandy didn’t know.” Explained Giorgio.

“And you are a friend of Ed. It couldn’t get any better really.” Said Anne.

“I had no idea you were the music girl he was talking about. I just didn’t put two and two together and think of you.” Giorgio was beginning to squirm.

“You certainly didn’t think of me. You haven’t emailed me or called once since we broke up. That is what I call a clean break.” Anne realised that she had no romantic feelings left for Giorgio, but for some reason wanted to give him a hard time.

“We broke up, Anne. We agreed not to make contact.” Giorgio was accurate in this, but he was still in the wrong as far as Anne was concerned.

Sandy returned and plopped herself down in her chair.

“He’s not answering, wouldn’t you know.” Sandy glanced at Anne. Anne took hold of her hand and they both looked accusingly at Giorgio.

“Hey! I’m just visiting my mate Ed in hospital, that’s all I’m here for. Nice to catch up with you both.”

Giorgio stood up and kissed both Anne and Sandy on the cheeks before leaving in a hurry.

“I can’t believe I went out with him.” Said Anne convincingly.

“It was just lust mixed with danger, pure and simple.”

“I think you are right.” Anne shook herself and picked up Sandy’s hand again.

“What am I going to do with Ed. What did you think about him?” Anne really wanted to know.
