Jared was approached by another reporter. She introduced herself as "Lawrence Monday." The name rang a bell from somewhere - something political. She called him out on his statement. It seemed as if she had caught his redirection and wanted more.
Jared took her offered hand. He may not be a fan of the press, but he was polite regardless. Her first question was easily explained. It made Jared think of Ekene and he couldn't help but hope that he was okay.
"Miss Monday, we hope for a day when the children here can go to school and not worry about getting shot, a day when their parents let them go outside and play with peace of mind, and a day where the people of Sierra Leone can go to bed without wondering whether or not they'll wake up."
He briefly debated telling Ekene's story, but it wasn't his to tell. His answer had been completely sincere though. It was what he wanted to see, and he felt confident enough that Danjou felt the same.
Which brought Jared to her second question - Wallace-Johnson. To be honest, he knew nothing of what Jacques had planned. He could beat around the bush, but he doubted it would work around Monday. "As for your second question Miss Monday, I honestly don't know. Knowing the Commander, I would think he would tell you it's not his decision to make."
