Hugh Hamilton
"Which one?" replied Hugh.
"The missing one" said Ben.
"Oh. Yes I did." Hugh said and he reached into his pocket, "Here"
He handed him the money and Ben stuffed it into his wallet. Suddenly Hugh's mobile rang intrusively from deep within his pocket. He quickly retrieved it and put it to his ear. A dial tone rythm pounded gently. He cursed and put it back into his pocket.
"Let's go to the station" he said.
Ben agreed and they began their walk. Ten minutes later Hugh's phone rang again. He quickly pushed it to his ear. It hung up again. He cursed louder and put it back in his pocket.
"What's the time?" asked Hugh.
"Uh.....5:30 am" relpied Ben glancing at his watch.
Hugh nodded and they continued their walk. Then, much to Hugh's annoyance, his phone rang again.
"What!!" he shouted angrily into the phone.
Ben looked at Hugh excitedly, hoping with all his heart that convention will be upheld and it will be Hugh's mum on the phone. But alas, it was again the arsehole who liked the phone to do the talking.
