208 The Club Management’s Stand

"So, Kristin," Mr. Stein said without looking back as he steered the vehicle around a corner and continued onwards along the highway to Fjellsiden. "You've been bugging me about going back to Africa for the past two years. Why don't you travel with Zachary this time around? That is if he doesn't mind." He added, stealing a glance at Zachary through the rearview mirror.

"I don't mind," Zachary was quick to reply.

"What are your thoughts about my proposition, Kristin?" Mr. Stein probed, eyes never leaving the road ahead.

"Hmmm!" Kristin said, creasing a brow. "Don't I need to get a visa and a yellow fever shot before traveling to Congo? That could take a bit of time, and I don't think it's good for Zachary to delay his trip waiting for me."
