CHAPTER 20: Back in Laos, 1975 ...... (Your review here)
Suryavarman greeted Nick—this time the tears were in his eyes. "I'm so sorry Nickolas. We didn't mean to stop you from leaving."
"No—please—I'm the one who is sorry for putting everyone in such danger. Rama told me what happened. I was such a fool to think that I could just walk out of here. I'm sorry."
"Nickolas, you needn't worry about our safety. Our temple is very isolated and far from all the fighting. The soldiers will find the raft and think you fell over. And you know how difficult it is to get here. Our sanctuary is perfectly safe. No one has followed you here. You haven't brought any danger upon us. On the contrary, you have only blessed us. Now come, sit with me. Lunch is almost ready."
Surya reached out and patted Nick on the head, a gesture of love that pleased everyone who saw it.
