He looked at the clock and then dialed.

Sunflower rubbed her eyes and trotted to the hall phone.
Mr. Gatsby and his fiance had been missing for hours, or days, or weeks. She wasn't really all that sure. All she knew was that she had to keep answering the phone to people asking questions about thngs she didn't understand. She told them that he was on vacation, not that he'd vanished.
Could be bad for business, whatever it was that his business was.
"Gatsby Estate, this is Sunflower Brooks, how may I help you this evening" she basically slurred in to the phone.

"Currently were in London, but where we've been, you'd never believe me."

"I used to work for Severus Snape" she deadpanned "he was dating a vampire, I'll believe you."

There was silence before she replied "As in, Alice in?"

You could almost hear her shrug on the other end of the line "Anythings possible eh? When are you coming back? There's been a lot of calls for you, can't keep tellin em that you're on vacation. And there was a call from the British museum but not from Miss Jess, it was from some old guy lookin for the sword. I asked em if Miss Jess told him to call he said no and then I hung up. I figured that was the right response."

"Yes, if anyone calls about the sword and isn't Ms. Cartwright than hanging up and not talking to them is about the smartest thing you could do" he laughed "a lot of people want their hands on that thing."
He exhaled "We aren't sure when we'll be back, it's all very up in the air right now. Sarah has a lot of responsibilities here to take care of, but you are welcome to give them this phone number although I'm not sure how long we'll be staying here. I might rent an apartment for the sake of having something more permanent."
He was rambling "Is everything all right there?"

"Tell Sunflower I miss her and that I'm sorry we didn't call sooner." Sarah said.
