One Hundred and Sixty Seven

Nevil noticed how happy Caleb was at the moment, 'But earlier when we arrived there was a sadness. No one told me what was happening the Saturday when her brother arrested that young man, but from what I gather the young man was after Caleb's wife. Is something going on that mom and dad are concealing from the rest of us? I must talk to dad.'

Nevil looked around for his father, but he wasn't anywhere to be seen, and so was Gilbert, 'Has they shun away to discuss something?' he asked himself.

Nevi asked Nicole to take Catty by the pool with the other children as he hurried to the house, upon seeing his mom alighting the stairs he asked, "Mom, where is dad?"

"He is going to rest Nevil, what is the problem?"

"I thought Gilbert and dad was in the study."

"Why would you say that? Isn't Gilbert by the pool as everyone else?"

"No, I didn't see him there."
