For a moment, Kathy almost hung up. Calling Minako had been a whim, a desire to hear her voice again, to know she was safe after the disaster at the Chinese Theater today. Minako fought her own fair share of monsters, after all, and Kathy had just wanted a moment of knowing she was still fighting, still safe.
But hearing her voice brought a hot rush of remembered shame and guilt to Kathy's cheeks and she really did debate muttering Wrong number and hanging up.
She didn't, though. She'd already been a coward to Minako. "Hi," she said softly. "I'm pretty sure math never made anybody explode. But I'd hate it if you were the first."
