Bryan and Tala have arrived. Let's see how things go, ne?

December 5th -- Rei & Tala

Rei put down the knife he was using to chop the vegetables for dinner and headed for the phone, wondering who would be calling now.

"Hello?"

"Rei!"

"Tala! Great to hear from you. What's up?"

"Well, hope you don't mind Rei, but Bryan and I came to visit."

"Came? You're at the airport right now?"

"Yeah. I thought I'd just call and tell you we're here. We're going to get a taxi and find a room at a hotel."

"Nonsense. Kai and I'll come get you. We don't live that far from the airport. And you'll stay with us too."

"But Rei-"

"No buts. We'll be there in about twenty minutes. I'll see you then."

Tala gave up on arguing, knowing it was pointless.

"You win Rei. See you in twenty."

Both hung up, and Rei made his way to the bottom of the stairs.

"Kai get down here. We're going to the airport."

"Wha-!"

I cut it off on purpose. You'll find out what happened later.
