Lawyer Mary calls me on the phone. She must be missing my money now that I’ve secured the biopsy sample of Minnie and my clone is on the way.

‘Always nice to hear from a friend,’ I say. I wonder what colour her nails are this week.

‘Bernard hasn’t signed the papers yet,’ she tells me. ‘But I’m working on him.’

‘He already paid me the money,’ I say. ‘I’ve spent the money.’

‘He’s stalling. This is quite common. People tend to get cold feet. I’m working on him.’

‘Do you have to?’ I ask.

‘I understand you want this thing finalised. I get it.’

But she doesn’t get me at all. There is $57,000 sitting in my account and the rest of it is somewhere in an American bank, paying for cell division and electrical artificial insemination.

‘Hey, how’s the puppy?’ she adds cheerfully.

I hazard a guess in my mind: her nails are glazed and bespeckled in the shade Passionate Prawn.

‘No sign of her yet,’ I say. ‘But she’ll be as sweet as Minnie. I’m sure of it.’
