Forgiving the Beta

Lowell 

We walk back to the main house and Beau remains quiet. 

I don't know what to say but I need to say something to manage the situation. Beau warned me that he would only intervene if anything happened to his son and now, something has happened to Col. I expect anger from him and I deserve that but I will not give up on Col. 

I will find him. 

We get to the house finally "What happened here?'' Beau asks immediately. 

There is a frown on his face. I wish I could tell him that I knew what happened because I have no clue. I wasn't even there when they took Col. I have no idea what happened that day. 

"I am sure you have already heard the stories; I am sure you know more about what happened than I do. I just woke up.'' 

He nods.
