Sto was nervous about Coral, the kits, and the possibility that the doctor was going to give him more shots.”“Yes, Sto talked with me briefly last...night and told me the same basic thing. How was Carl?”“Carl’s doing good. He is about ten years from retirement and looking forward to the day he can sit back and just take it easy. I don’t think that day will ever come for Carl. He just isn’t the type of person who takes it easy.“I submitted my report to him, and he read it while I waited. He said. Every time I spoke it was like the vibrations went right through me.They nodded and we got in the car. “Want to talk about it?” Gina asked.“People that did something disgusting and very personal to make my life miserable sat down with me today and told me they were willing to forgive me for what happened,” I said. “I was overwhelmed by the depths of their generosity.”“They got under your skin, huh?” Lana asked gently.“I left the cafeteria because I sincerely considered killing all seven of them. It's coming this way and Walton will burn. Let's get on the road and ride back north a bit. I want to use the binoculars to determine as much information as possible about this."There was a light wind blowing from the northeast. We traveled about two miles north on the Interstate to a high ridge. We tied the horses and climbed to the highest point with our binoculars at hand. Using them, we could see what looked like the northernmost point of the burnt area. It was in an industrial area outside. He finished making me some pancakes and bacon and served me some at the table.“Wow you really love me,” I said.“Well, I'm just welcoming you here and making sure you feel at home,” Jake replied.“OK thanks Jake,” I said.We sat down and ate. After that he gave me a ride to work and I wasn't sure how to feel about him being so sweet to me, but he was the best brother growing up as well. He took the fall for me making messes a few times and defended me against a jerk boyfriend before as well. He.
