Ch 73

Beth sat on the edge of the bed. She had planned this and didn't want to leave Deen with any other options. So, she made sure that she had taken away everything in the room other than the cots. Thinking that it was easy enough to say that the children could use them, or it was to make sure the room that they were going to be in had more room. Deen looked at the bed and then down at the cots noticing just how flimsy the things looked. At first, he just stood there looking around and feeling a little uncomfortable. Now that all the kids were in the other rooms leaving just the two of them together. Deen saw that the doors had been pulled shut but not locked. He remembered the look on Sadie's and Tommy's faces as they left the room.
