The storm warning was over the next day, and the bridges were re-opened. When Pete returned to the Dakota Hotel, he found Dan and asked, "Can I use the phone? I need to make a long distance call." | |||
"It'll cost ya," the concierge said, putting the phone on the counter. Pete gave him some bills, and the former raised an eyebrow. | |||
"Errands went well for you on the mainland, then?" he said, pocketing the money. | |||
"You've no idea," Pete said, taking the wireless phone and walking over to the lobby. He sat down, and dialled the number. Someone picked up on the second ring. | |||
"Hello?" | |||
"Aunt Enid, it's me, Pete." | |||
"Pete! Nice of you to call in. How are things going down in Vice City?" | |||
"I...great. I've...made a lot of friends." | |||
"That's nice, dear. Have you found out anything on your brothers yet? | |||
Pete sighed. "Yes, auntie. Vic is dead. I don't know about Lance." | |||
"Oh my," she whispered, shocked. "How did it happen?" | |||
"I don't know. I'm still trying to figure it out." He couldn't tell her. He couldn't. | |||
"I...I'm sorry to hear that. Well...enjoy your stay in Vice City." | |||
"Are you alright, auntie? You seem worried." | |||
"No, everything's fine. I'm just...I can't believe Vic is...how am I going to tell your mother..." | |||
Pete's fist clenched. "She doesn't care. She doesn't give a shit about us. All she does is waste our money on cocaine and Mexicans." | |||
"Pete! Don't talk about your mother like that. She may have made mistakes, but she's still a good person." | |||
"Yeah. You're right, auntie. I'm sorry, I'm just really frustrated with everything that's going on here." | |||
"Okay. Keep in touch, Pete." | |||
"Bye, auntie." | |||
Pete hung up, and sighed. He stood up, put the phone back on the counter, and headed upstairs to his room. | |||
