I beckoned once again to Clementine once I saw the coast was clear and she joined me in the make-shift infirmary.
She put AJ down carefully, her eyes flitting back and forth between the people around the campfire, Lingard and the guards around us. Taking out the piece of paper that Lingard had given to us before, saying it should have helped AJ, I was about to read it when AJ burst into tears again, quietly sobbing into his sleeve.
