I woke up to the phone ringing, answered and perked up, replying quickly and ending the call. I saw that Jennifer was awake and leaning on an elbow, wearing a cheap tourist T-shirt with her hair sticking out all over the place, making me grin. Rubbing her eyes, she asked who was on the phone.

“It was the embassy. They want to see us at ten o’clock. The cable must have worked, because we’ve been invited behind the green curtain. We get to talk to the wizard.”

Waking up fast, Jennifer tried to brush her hair in place, asking, “What’s that mean? Who’d you talk to?”

“That was the asshole Eric.” Shit . . . Be nice. . . . “Sorry. That was the nice man from the embassy, Eric. He asked us to come back.”

“That’s good news, isn’t it? Do we need to do anything before we go?”

“No. I’m not sure what the cable caused. We’ll just see how it goes. Either way, we got some action, so that’s good.”

She looked at me like I was hiding something, and I was, but she let it go. “Okay, Jason Bourne, I’ll follow your lead.”

When we got to the embassy, even I was surprised at who was waiting.
