Could I borrow her? Only I don’t know if the charter company would even allow it. “Bring your own pilot” isn’t standard practice.

Alice’s reply is instant.

Alice

My Angela is your Angela. She’d never turn down a chance to get back in the air. As for the company? Leave that to me.

Kaori

I shouldn’t ask, but what are you planning to do?

Alice

Just something my brother taught me.

Kaori

Which is?

Alice

People go the extra mile for a polite call from a royal and the promise of some positive press.

Kaori

A, no. I’d like to leave the pressout of this.

Alice

Relax. I was thinking of volunteering Eddie for a charity flight and a photo op at a date TBD. It’s exactly the sort of currency these companies trade in.

Kaori

You’re not interested?

Alice

Absolutely not. The closest I get to helicopters is the flying elephants at Disney.

I laugh to myself.

Kaori

What would I do without you?

Alice

You’d figure it out eventually. Now—have you thought about what you’re wearing?

Kaori

No. Jeans? A jumper?

Alice

No, no, no! You need something to remind your bloke why he can’t live without you.
