“Someone I met on the plane. You don’t know her but don’t worry. I will be careful.”

After a brief silence, he replied, “Alright, remember to drop me a message when you go out. Also, send me the address so that I can pick you up.”

I grunted in acknowledgment and ended the call.

I nodded and received them. “Thank you!”

He left after acknowledging my thanks.
