It wasn’t safe…anywhere.” He fell silent, his breaths quick and deep. “I prayed every day, all day, that God would do something. And then…” he trembled and fresh tears…” quote by C.J. Bishop

““Sometimes…Noel would call me, and he sounded so scared and lost and alone, but…but he couldn’t come home…it wasn’t safe there. It wasn’t safe…anywhere.” He fell silent, his breaths quick and deep. “I prayed every day, all day, that God would do something. And then…” he trembled and fresh tears formed. “Abel called.” He ducked his head again, quiet sobs gripping him for a moment before he continued, his voice breaking. “I-I didn’t even know he existed, but then he was…he was just…there…and he saved us…took us to a real home and a real family who took us in and loved us like their own.” Everywhere””
