Chapter 118

??What am I gonna do, Ma???

??I don??t know, love.?? Sighing, she got to her feet. ??Listen, I??ve got to go. I promised Mrs Schindler I??d help with the catering for her grandson??s Bar Mitzvah tomorrow.??

Joey resented the fact his mother preferred to go off and do her organising, rather than stay with him, but he refused to allow her to see his pain at being abandoned.

??See, you had the caps lock on.?? Kevin stood at Mr Parker??s side, trying not to get angry at the older man??s lack of computer skills.

??So why didn??t the stupid thing tell me that???

??Because passwords are case sensitive, some people write them in upper case. All that the computer knew was that the password you were typing in wasn??t the correct one.??

??Stupid thing,?? Mr Parker repeated.

The buzzer to the outer door sounded, distracting both men.

??Who on earth??? Parker said looking up at the security monitor.

Kevin saw who it was and grew uneasy. ??It??s Joey??s mother.??
