Phones work both ways. This is something he's known for a very long time. During his years on Callisto, he sometimes lived in dread of that phone ringing and almost never used it to make outgoing calls. But he's not on Callisto any more, and nobody's looking for him; his name isn't even on the official bounty list any more. He's used his passport and no MPs have come looking for him.
Besides, he really wants to talk to Faye, and nothing says he can't. Impatient with himself, he dials and likes the pattern of sevens in her room number. Lucky seven. 7-7-7, and finds he's holding his breath as the phone rings.
The anticipation is so delicious. He feels like a kid about to be treated to his very favorite ice cream.
