At the drop in centre, Kane sneaked into Flynn's office and left a note
asking Flynn to give the letter to Kirsty. He was praying that he wouldn't
meet Shelly, or anybody else. He just wanted to leave quietly. As he turned
around to leave, however, Flynn walked into the office.
"Kane," he said. "What are you doing here? If Shelly sees you, she'll probably call the police."
"Look man, I'm leaving ok? I just need you to give this letter to Kirsty. I guess you already know she's back home with her family."
"Yeah, I got the short version of it from Shelly, and I don't think this is a good idea. Kirsty's really upset, and this could make things a whole lot worse," said Flynn, his voice dropping to a whisper so they would not be over heard.
He walked around the desk to his chair and sat down. From here he could see who was in the next room, just in case Shelley walked in. It was unlikely as Kirsty had only just got home, but he needed to make sure, for Kane's sake as well as the Sutherlands.
"Please Flynn you have to. I said some really horrible things to make her go back to her family, stuff that I didn't mean. I don't want her to hate me, I love her and I need her to know that. So please, will you give the letter to Kirsty?" Kane was getting more and more frustrated. Flynn was supposed to be his councillor, the only person apart from Kirsty, that he could talk to and who was supposed to be able to help him. So why wasn't he listening?
Flynn glanced at the rucksack on Kane's back.
"Where are you going?"
"Away from here. From Kirsty. She deserves better than me. If I leave then it will be easier for both of us."
"You don't really think its that simple do you Kane? But fine. I'll give it some thought. If I think that it's the right thing to do then I'll give Kirsty your letter," Flynn consented.
"Fine, whatever, I need to go." Kane was getting more and more upset by the minute. Why couldn't Flynn see he was trying to do the right thing?
Kane had just started to walk back through the door, when Flynn added,
"Kane. What you did for Kirsty was pretty selfless. She may not be able to see that right now, but you did the right thing, and I can guess that it must have been pretty tough for you. So don't hate yourself too much ok? And if you ever need to talk you know where I'll be."
Kane wasn't sure what to say. After a few seconds he gave a nod of his head and left. He was heading for a new life and that's all he could allow himself to think about.
"Kane," he said. "What are you doing here? If Shelly sees you, she'll probably call the police."
