not only that , but worrying about his safety , where he was , who he was with . she wasnt doing a very good job of it . maybe that was why he wasnt calling me . the exotic-looking man still watched them . anger was a good remedy for grief . he stretched out on his bunk , closed his eyes , and wondered how the nightmare would end . i hate the words because i do n't want anything to be wrong with him . it acted like a magnet drawing beth towards it .
