True, Arthur. Mrs K said that she'd spent the last three days wishing she'd had a way to reach us. And looking up every time someone came in at the door, hoping we'd get there before anyone else did.

After the second attempt, when we had more for them to consider, we'd decided the only way to proceed was just to keep an eye on the situation. It could have been dangerous, of course, if they'd reported two people matching our descriptions, but - well. Like you said, we wanted to give them a chance to see that we weren't going to just leave them on their own.
