She made a dismissive sound. "Yeah, well, the next time someone tries to shoot you, you're going to have buy me something really nice to make it up to me. Like Australia."
"You want me to buy you a trip to Australia?" I asked, thinking that could probably be arranged.
"No." Her reply was pert. "I want you to buy me Australia. You can afford it."
I snorted. "I don't think it's for sale."
"Then I guess that you have no choice but to
avoid getting shot at."
"I'll be careful," I promised.”
