Nicky stretched and tried unsuccessfully to cover a yawn, while Ashley looked around almost in shock at the lowering skies; how long had they been sitting listening to Ricky talk? All the children were parked on various chairs and divans, huddled together and fast asleep, some with throws and shawls pulled up over them, obviously they'd tired themselves out and bedded down unnoticed by her while she'd been enthralled by Ricky's story.
Julia stood up from where she'd been sitting on a hassock, completely unnoticed, and crossed the room to kiss Ricky on the forehead, chucking his chin as she did. At the same time, Judy stretched with an immense, jaw-cracking yawn, working her thighs because her legs had gone to sleep where she'd sat for hours cross-legged on the carpet between Leon's legs, fascinated by Ricky's story. Bobby sat with his arm around Shari, her head on his shoulder and her eyelashes glinting with tears, young Nick on her lap, and little Ayesha fast asleep on his lap, and David, Julia's husband and Ricky's surrogate father, in his favourite armchair, with 10 year-old Rachel, his little sister sitting on his lap, her eyes bright with tears for her big brother because he was hurting so much.

Yaz stood from where she'd been sitting on the floor leaning against Ricky's knees up and hugged Julia, her eyes red and swollen where she'd been crying silently as memory awakened and grief for her mother once more surged through her. Julia sat her down and held her as only a mother could, gentling her through her fit of grief brought about by Ricky's story. As she held her, she whispered to her, and finger-combed her hair back so she could look into her eyes; whatever she saw there seemed to satisfy her, because she smiled as she gently blotted Yasmin's tears, whispered briefly in her ear, and watched as she slid onto Ricky's lap, hugging him fiercely.
Ricky looked around the room, at all of his family gathered there to share in his unburdening, and, strangely, he felt at peace at last; the last shreds of throttled pain and anger, the
