Steve got out of the water, came home and checked the phone again. He thought to call her again before losing his courage. But then he saw that she sent him a message:
Hey, Steve. I see you called me several times. Sorry, I did not answer. I can only talk on this phone when I'm safe. I will call you, still today. I just can not tell you the hour. I hope you're okay.
Steve replied, I'm fine, do not worry. I look forward to your call. Be safe.
Steve breathed a little more relief. He got dressed and went to work. He was the first to arrive at headquarters. He wanted to be home, but he had to go to work. Danny arrived shortly after.
Hey, Steve.
Hi, Danny. You are early.
Yes, today is a beautiful Friday. Melissa and Lynn want to go to the movies later. Did Lynn talk to you?
No. And I will not.
Because ?
Because I do not want to, Danny.
I understand. You want to go out alone with Lynn.
No. I want to be alone with myself.
I understood nothing. But its alright. said Danny, walking away.
Steve waited all day as a teenager and Catherine did not call. He got his car and drove home. He was driving and the phone rang. His heart pounded, he was eager to hear her voice ... But he were disappointed when saw it was Lynn. He decided not to answer. He was not prepared for Lynn's futility today.
Steve came home, sat down on one of the beach chairs, and set the phone aside.
Somewhere in the world, Catherine finally made it home. She spent several hours following clues and discovered that the person she was investigating would go to Hawaii. It was very important that she obtain evidence against this man and complete his mission. So she decided she was going to Hawaii. She will ask Steve to use some of the 5-0 features. She was sure he would not refuse to help her.
My God! Steve! I need to call him.
She went to where she hid the phone and dialed her number.
Steve fell asleep in his chair and was awakened by Catherine's call.
Cath?
Yes it's me. You can talk?
Yes, Cath, I've been waiting all day.
I'm sorry, Steve. I was working. I got home now. So what happened? Are you alright?
Not, Catherine. I'm not well. I need to talk to you. We need to have this conversation we did not have two years ago.
Steve ... Why this? You have moved.
Catherine, please. I need it. This is eating me inside.
Steve ...
I'm begging you, Cath. I'm throwing my pride in the trash can. Where are you? If I have to go to Japan to see you, I will.
That will not be necessary. I'm going to Hawaii. I'll be there on Sunday.
Tell me your flight schedule, and I'll be there.
You do not have to do this, Steve. I'm going to look for you at headquarters.
You do not have to stay in a hotel, Catherine.
I need this, Steve. It was never my character to stay in the house of committed men.
Cath ...
Steve, listen to me. I go to Hawaii following a drug dealer who funds terrorist acts. I need to get him, Steve. I really need to get it. Will you help me?
Of course, Catherine. Whatever you need. Steve said, disappointed not to be the reason for his arrival in Hawaii.
Catherine felt the disappointment in her voice.
I want to see you too, Steve. I miss you very much. But seeing you and not wanting you is impossible. Seeing him with another woman hurts a lot.
I'll fix this, Cath. I promise you this.
