章 426: Girlfriend

"Son of a forgettable woman!" George shouted once the call stabilized. "Did anyone teach you that you don't have to wait months to call me?"

"I forget I have a phone half of the time," Khan laughed. "Life sure is treating you well."

The holograms coming out of Khan's phone showed a nice scene. George was sitting on a comfortable armchair with a half-full glass lying on the right armrest. His face had gotten slimmer and his hair shorter, but that new look suited him and depicted a perfectly healthy man.

"You look like shit instead," George commented. "Do you even sleep anymore?"

"The last few days have been a mess," Khan explained. "I was actually on my way to bed when I thought about calling you."

"That bad, huh?" George guessed.

"Usual mess," Khan kept it short, "But I'm good. I might have learnt to look at the positive side."

"Did they replace you or something?" George questioned in a surprised tone.
