[Have you calmed down?] Viktor asked.
After a moment of thought, Dante drew in a deep breath.
"Yeah, I'm okay now."
[You sure?]
"You think we would still be talking if I weren't?"
[Well, don't fault me for checking. You gave us quite the scare, you know?]
A horn blared right behind Dante, startling him quite a bit. A truck had inched forward without his notice, or it might have been there beforehand, forced into a sudden stop following his earlier drift. Turning in a different direction, he noticed the blinking lights of police sirens.
Realizing he had unintentionally caused a traffic jam, he twisted the throttle and lifted his left foot, taking off with a much more moderate speed than before.
"How did you know?" He asked. "You're still out of the city, right?"
[Finn called. Said you were about to do something really stupid.]
"That idiot…"
[Don't know what you did, but it scared him quite a bit. Make sure to send him a text or something.]
