I could not talk to them for a long time because mum began to hurry us home. Uncle Ray was back in the country and after hearing everything about Nate, he decided to visit us. According to mum, he was already home waiting for us.
Uncle Ray looked the same way he did the last time I saw him, he was tall and big and his hair was cut very short.
'Is there anything I can do?'
After listening to mum complain so much for so long, he finally had a word in. There was nothing he could do to help us but it was courteous of him to ask.
'I don't think so. I've talked to a lot of people and they all said it was too sensitive to do anything. I still have hope that Jenny would drop the case.'
Wishful thinking. That was all we could do now. Unlike everyone who kept hope alive, I had given up. I was no longer interested in Nate, I only wanted to meet more women.
