Jon's front left pants pocket vibrated suddenly. He was getting a call on his Wallet. He reached into his pocket and retrieved his Wallet to check the number. He didn't recognize it.
"Please excuse me a moment,"
he said briefly.
He answered the call. Muffled voices in the background."Hello?"
No response that he could make out. Had he been pocket dialed? And if so, who was this person who'd gotten his number?
That voice...it was so garbled and washed out by the sound of crinkling pants and...running water perhaps?...Jon swore that voice was a dead ringer for Nick Trano. Of course, he'd only had one interview with the man, so it was hard to pin down a voice with that little to go on.
Jon removed his Wallet from his ear and turned to his companions at the table. "Very sorry, I need to attend to this call."
He rose from the table and took a few steps back to make himself private. Well, as private as anything would be in a place like this. Perhaps it'd been a client, or a prospective one, or perhaps something entirely unexpected. There weren't many people who had his phone number.
Jon hit resend, and called the number back.
