We walked back in almost silence down to Knox’s house. I told Ruby that Knox would need to see her too, as she was ready to head home. I think she is struggling to process this as much as I am to be honest, and likely wanted some time and space to think about it all.
But Knox needed to talk to us both. Get our formal statement on it so he can file a formal report. Follow procedure. Do things the right way. Shame I hadn't...
Knox opens the door. I could see instantly he was worried about me. He was chewing his lower lip, the way he does when he is anxious. How he has a lip left there is beyond me the amount he has chewed it over the years!
“Hey” I said as we walked in.
As soon as I am in the hallway of his house, he grabs me in a hug. No words. Just a hug. And suddenly Lilah is there
