A/N
Really short chapter, but I'm going somewhere with this...

"I got your number from Chloe." She said at last, "it's Nadia. Nadia Yassir."

"I remember" the young man on the other line made no hesitation to reply.

She didn't know if she was going to call him or not, but finally she gave in after Doyle's reaction today. She needed to have someone else to go to, somewhere else to try to bury this whole thing.

"Are you coming tomorrow?"

"Yes. I wouldn't miss it. I'm very glad you're speaking for him as well, Milo would have wanted that." Stewart said.

She wasn't so sure. "Maybe." She replied at last. She tapped at the phone with a fingernail, almost a nervous habit that she didn't display very regularly. "Is anyone else from your family coming?"

"No. It'll be just me."

"Oh."

She could almost hear his loss of something further to talk about on the other end. "Well, I've really got to get going, find something to wear for tomorrow."

She nodded though he couldn't see her. "Yeah..."

"If you want we could meet up after the service… if you wanted to talk more about Milo, that is."

She breathed a sigh of relief, "I would, thank you"

It was always a good thing when someone caught onto what you were saying before actually having to come out flat out and say it. She would have made more time to speak to him when he came to CTU, if they weren't still mid-crisis and she had been able to get through some of the feelings she had been having about the day before that point. Now the reason for the phone call was out in the open.

"Sounds good." He said.

"See you tomorrow."

She hung up the phone and sighed, running a hand through her hair. She was almost tempted to call Doyle as well and ask if everything was still alright for tomorrow but she didn't want to disturb him – or rather she decided that HE didn't want to be disturbed.

She climbed into bed, knowing that it was getting easier and easier for her to sleep, and closing her eyes thankfully not feeling anxious about the next day.

Your reviews are totally keeping me going. Keep reviewing.
