"Julia?" A woman's voice spoke, an accent obvious in her quiet tone "My
apologies.. I was looking for my brother, Derek Rayne? I thought I had
called his auto's mobile."
Julia smiled sheepishly as she answered "You did. He's at the house and I'm
pretty sure he has his personal cell on him if you wanted to call there?"
There was a pause and then Ingrid spoke again, her tone careful "I believe I
will. I just don't remember a Julia.... except for one..."
She wasn't sure how to finish that one so she let it trail off.
Julia could understand her hesitancy and finished for her "Except for Julia
Walker. Why don't you give him a ring. I'm sure he's got his phone."
That's all she could actually say about it. What was she supposed to do...
tell Derek's sister that she was the Julia Walker the woman was thinking
about and come back from the dead? Oh that would have gone over well.
"I will, thank you." Ingrid finished with a pleasant tone, obviously
relieved the speaker had understood her hesitancy and then hanging up.
Julia ended the call from her end and peeked back at Kat "You're quiet."
Ingrid hung up the phone and quickly dialed her brother's personal cell
phone number, waiting for it to ring.

Derek:

"Excuse me for a moment," he said to his friend. "Derek Rayne?"
