The attention of several people in the room was drawn to this question. They turned their heads and saw that the speaker was a woman with short hair and dark skin, dressed in aborigine attire.
This woman was speaking the local language, which Jazmine and the others could understand.
Jazmine knew she hadn't misheard; this woman was indeed asking if they were looking for a man. Thinking back to the figure they had just seen, could it really be Giancarlo?
So, does this woman know where Giancarlo actually is?
If it's really him, why doesn't he come forward? Instead, he lets this woman approach them, looking at them with a gaze that seems to have succeeded in some kind of scheme.
These days, Jazmine has gone from hope to disappointment, then back to hope, and finally to numbness. She doesn't even know what to do with herself anymore.
Should I trust what this woman is saying?
