Kapitel 60: Scars

 Mrs. Crouch herself came back up to help Delaney dress. The woman was not much for doing hair so after a few minutes, Delaney had just laughed and said it would be fine in a braid. Mrs. Crouch had smiled in relief and been on her way.

 Now, when Delaney stopped to gather her courage before leaving her room, it was not to face her husband but now his brother. Stepping into the dining room she found the pair of them already eating. Vincent smiled when he saw her and pulled her seat back for her.

 Miles's eyes went from her to his brother then back. He looked annoyed but Delaney couldn't tell if it was with her or Vincent.

   Her hands were throbbing from the continued use so she gingerly held her silverware as she ate. Vincent also wasn't eating much and she imagined he must still not be feeling well from his night of drinking.
