Sarah, with a determined look on her face, went into the room that Moses slept in.
"What are you going to do Sarah?" James questioned her.
"I'm going to discuss this matter with Moses. Perhaps he can help," she answered him.
Sarah marched in and called back out to him.
"You go check on Henri. I'll be there in a moment."
With a shrug of his shoulders, James went downstairs into the print shop.
By now the sun has risen much higher and the room was lit.
Immediately his eyes fell on little Henri who was on the floor beside the door. Only his back was covered with the blanket so James clearly saw the rest of his body still nude.
Feeling uneasy to approach Henri, James slowly walked toward him. He stopped a few feet away and inwardly gasped. Indeed Henri's words were right; his expression seemed lost and alone.
James spoke to the broken soul before him.
"Mind if I uh... sit down?"
Henri's mouth twitched. James decided to sit down anyway. He slid up next to Henri.
Just then Sarah and Moses came running down the stairs.
"Here he is Moses!" Sarah loudly spoke.
"I didn't believe it at first, but now I see the truth," he said. "What happened to you Henri?"
No answer.
"He won't really tell," James told him.
Moses sighed heavily, "You two may leave. I'll speak to Henri here alone."
"But...," said James protesting.
"Come along, James," Sarah said to him with a nod.
James frowned, but got up from his place on the floor. He took one last look at Henri and the two walked out.
