Mr. Noonan and Roland listened to Avery after the man gave his answer, hearing her asking if it was ok and talking about of her being a troublesome responsibility, also mentioning about the press being nosy and nerve wrecking as they were now. Once she was finished, Mr. Noonan replied.

[i]“I’m not very worried about all of those people out there,”[/i] said Mr. Noonan to Avery, [i]“I can figure something out about them somehow, so that isn’t a problem.”[/i]

[i]“She thinks she’ll be a problem staying with us though,”[/i] said Roland, getting into the conversation, [i]“Like when she stayed at the house a couple of nights ago.” [/i]

[i]“I don’t see how,”[/i] said Mr. Noonan, [i]“Me and Mrs. Noonan did the same thing for you Roland when your parents decided to move out of town, and to this day, you aren’t a hassle to us. With Avery there, it won’t be any different.”[/i]

Roland leaned up a little from the chair, scratching the back of his head and spoke up about the topic of conversation. [i]“You see Avery?”[/i] he said looking over to Avery, [i]“You won’t be any trouble. You can live with us and begin a new life and everything else. You won’t have to worry about a thing.”[/i]

[i]“He’s right,”[/i] said Mr. Noonan to Avery as well, following up to what Roland said, [i]“We will keep you safe and out of harm.”[/i]
