Don sighed with relief. She had been sure for a moment that Rie would attract so much attention that her brother would wander over to see what it was all about and see her.
"You're sure it was Talômi, Don? Absolutely sure?"
Don was rather shocked at Rie's question, but it made her sit back and think. "Yes, unless he was lying," she said. "He said that was his name."
"What do we do?"
Don's face screwed up in concentration. "Get to my room," she said. "He may ask someone if you were here, and that person, not knowing you were hiding from him, would tell."
