Seventeen

Sam unlocked the cell door, and Mom joined us on the “outside.”

Officer Rumson gently took her arm and led the way. Aldous walked next to Mom; Dad followed behind and then Allison followed him. Sam was still by the door as I brought up the rear. I stopped long enough to let the rest of the crowd get far enough ahead so they wouldn’t hear what I had to say to Sam.

“Oregano,” I said quietly.

“Excuse me?”

“Mom ran into someone who smelled like oregano. I’ll talk to you about it after the bail hearing.”

“I’m all for that, Becca, but you might want to let your mom’s attorney know that you’ll be talking to me.”

I wondered why, but of course it made sense. Sam wouldn’t want to jeopardize Mom’s case in any way. He might want to investigate something I told him. He didn’t want to find something that might actually prove her guilty, or at least that’s what I hoped.

I wasn’t sure whether I’d tell Aldous or not, but I nodded agreeably.
