"No worries," Dorothy said, tugging at the corner of her lips. "Kenneth, there's less than two weeks left. I don't want to have any regrets." "I get it." "Thanks for understanding." Dorothy chuckled. "There's a stir over at Byte 7. You'll still need to keepposted, okay? I appreciate it." "Sure, no problem at all. I'm happy to keep an eye on things for you."
