23 weeks of pregnancy

"What do you mean he's been followed?!"

"I'm sorry sir, but some of my guys said they keep seeing this blond guy and a woman with brown hair. It appears to us that they have been following ."

Andrews was fuming." Do you think he called them in?"

"We don't think so. He doesn't appear to make any conversation with them, sometimes he doesn't even know they're following him. We've checked the phone you gave him and it just shows phone calls made to you and one to his lady friend." The henchman stood straighter." Should we be concerned about her?"

"No no," Andrews waved his hand carelessly," She is of no concern. Brian tells me she thinks he's on business for this computer company." He looked down to the Rolex on his wrist. "Please keep an eye on Brian. He should be here by 10 a.m, no later."

Ulaanbaatar hotel, 7:00 a.m

Eric's Iphone ( his real phone ) buzzed by his bedside table. Groaning, he blindly reached for the phone missing several times. He immediately perked up at who was trying to face time him.

"Good evening Rockstar." He smiled. On screen, Nell was struggling to get comfortable. "Goodmorning Wolfram."

"How's everything?"

Nell hummed when she found a comfortable position. "If you mean the case, nothing much. In terms of me…I'm okay I guess. My morning sickness has somewhat diminished. She's moving a lot and kicking harder." She paused and rubbed her stomach when she felt the baby move." My feet are killing me and the pelvic pain thing got worse."

Eric grimaced." I'm really sorry Nell."

"Why are you sorry?"

"That I cant be there."

"Eric the fact that you want to be here makes your apology accepted. But you don't need to be sorry."

Eric smiled bitterly. "I miss you so much."

"I miss you more." Nell yawned and felt her eyes begin to droop.

"Go to sleep."

"I'm not sleepy, and I only just started talking to you." She argued feebly.

"Yes you are. Go to sleep, you can talk to me later, okay?"

"Fine," she stuck her tongue out at the screen," good night."

"Night Nellie."

Café in Ulaanbaatar, 10:00 am

Eric (or Brian) sat at one of the café's tables in the far corner waiting for Andrews. Swirling his black coffee, he kept a close watch on the pedestrians walking past the café in trying to identify the clean-cut figure that was Andrews.

Eric was in deep thought. Talking to Nell made him realize that the baby would arrive in little less than three months. While some may say that's plenty of time to prepare, to the tech it felt like it was a race against the clock. By the time he would get back to LA, there would only be 2 months left. Not only did he and Nell not feel ready ( he could only imagine how she was feeling), but there was still so much to do.

His thoughts were interrupted when a shadow was casted over his table. He looked up to the eyes of a rather large man.

"Are you Brian Norbon?" his voice was gruff. Eric answered yes.

"Come with me, I was sent to come get you."

He stood up warily. This man could be someone Andrews sent. Then again, he could be someone else. He didn't was to threaten his character. Deciding to test his theory, Eric followed the man outside.

"I understand you were asked to hack a bank." Eric stopped dead in his tracks.

"No I was not."

The man turned and sneered. "Well…technically I'm asking you." With a quick movement, the man tried to grab Eric and subdue him. With stealth that even surprised Eric, he dodged his on coming attacker and sprinted down the street for the alley.

Imagine Eric's surprise when he found Andrews standing there, calming smoking a cigarette.

"You can relax Brian." He stated, breathing out the smoke. Gasping for air, Eric turned from Andrews to his earlier attacker who was now calmly walking to them.

"Consider this a test, Brian. Unfortunately, we have a suspicion you have been followed and we were just checking where your loyalties lie. I'm pleased to say you passed."

'Thank god.' Eric thought.

"Leon," he addressed the larger man," you're driving. Brian, we're heading out to our building."
