Deana noticed Aunt Evans was in low spirits and tried to console her, “Auntie, I haven’t lived here for very long, so I can’t say for certain if Charlie has been here in recent years.

Don’t lose hope just yet.”

Aunt Evans let out a sigh and confided, “I don’t doubt that Charlie is still alive, but the clues I have are so few.

If one of them falls apart, the rest are useless…”

Deana reassured her, “Auntie, maybe it’s not yet time for you to meet Charlie. When the time is right, even if he’s far away, he’ll come to you.

Believe me, I worry I won’t live to see that day.”

Deana couldn’t help feeling sorry for Aunt Evans.

Aurous Hill was a painful place for her, with her daughter and son-in-law dying here and her grandson missing for over two decades.

If it were her, she would never have had the courage to come back. Yet here she was, in her advanced age, seeking closure.

Deana knew it would take a long time for her to find peace.
