On my way out, I met Tom Scott, the only other leaderwho hadn’t gone on the excursion, busily clearing awaysome of the sports equipment. He look...d up toacknowledge me with a friendly smile as I went by.“Going out, Christa?”I stopped to adjust the knot at the front of my shirt.“Yep,” I answered, “I’m going for a walk in the forest.”“On your own?” He raised his eyebrows. “You’d better becareful.”I glanced at him.. Hello, Ms. Winters. Where did you come from? Are you lost?” Matti had jumped to his feet quickly when she rounded the corner. All thoughts, as well as all of his concerns, about police and bikers had immediately disappeared.“I don’t know if I’m lost or not. I’m looking for Matti McEwen, and if you’re not him, could you tell me where I might find him? I’m hoping to interview him.” Dawn Winters was smiling as she finished speaking, and it wasn’t clear if it was because of Matti’s flustered. “I do know that the kids you helped will remember you assisting them. Even the most stuck-up, little shit spending daddy’s or mommy’s money picked up enough from the others to know you were doing it because you wanted to help them. You weren’t paid to help them and didn’t need the money. So, few of these kids ever get anyone who isn’t doing something for them because it is their responsibility or they are paid to do so, as I’m sure some have told you.”“I’m amazed that the kids take you saying. She began to flush with embarrassment and said “I am sorry sir, I should not have asked’ and turned to walk away. As she left she herd him say ‘I will be waiting for you as you go home.’ That day went very slowly and as it got closer to going home the more nervous and scared she got. All the things she had thought about in her room as she played and the times in her imagination she had been with this man but today it was going to be real and she would have no control. As she left her.
