Ted looks at the screen, the man suspended in the air like a dark angel. He looks at the postcard of Elina’s painting. He shakes his arm, which feels stiff and is prickling with pins and needles – maybe it’s time to go and see that osteopath again – and he stands. He looks at his hands, the scar on the back of his thumb, the numbers on the phonepad. He picks up the phone and holds it. He should call his father back. Or maybe he should call Elina again to see if she’s OK. But Ted doesn’t punch in any of their numbers. He sits at his desk, holding the receiver to his ear and listens to the sonic pulse of the dial tone, soothing in its monotony, like the wind through trees, like the sea over pebbles.
