“"This is Melissa Morgan." Her new last name—of course. "Melissa, this is Roxann from the Rescue program." "Roxann? I didn't think I'd ever hear from you again." "How are you and Renita getting along?" "Wonderfully. She loves Kansas City, and her new school. She's like a different child, so happy." "I'm so glad for you." "Is something wrong, Roxann?" "Actually, Melissa, I'm in a bit of a bind, and I was hoping you could help me out." "I will if I can." She took a deep breath and made her request..., explaining the ramifications if Melissa did or didn't decide to help. Twenty minutes later, she had her yes. She thanked Melissa, then hung up and dialed Nell's sister on the pay phone. The sister had obviously heard news of the arrest, because when Roxann identified herself, she was hesitant to let her speak to Nell. But when Nell heard, she took the call right away. "Roxann, dear, are you all right?" She spent the next few minutes assuring her mentor that everything was fine, despite the news sound bites and grim newspaper reports.MoreLessRead More Read Less
