Chapter 51-2

We're waiting for Uncle Jerry, who is almost an hour late. In a different situation, my father would have been pissed at his tardiness.

Eddie even pinned a 'welcome home' banner above the bay windows, and another recruit blew up some balloons. Chastity is taking a nap upstairs, thoroughly tired from her escapades in the kitchen. "Heard from Hector?" Aaron asks, offering me a bowl of chips.

"Just a text message." I reply. "I'll try ringing him later, after this meeting."
