Casey paused, then said, "It's about Mr. Kennedy." It had been ages since Quinn heard about Alexander. Her face changed a bit, and she looked at Casey, surprised. "What about him? Got any news?" Quinn quickly pulled her up. "Get up and sit down first." She dragged Casey to a chair, staring at her, dying to know more.

The person he was talking to seemed to be from there, and he was super upset, telling them to butt out and that he wasn't going." Quinn's face went blank for a moment, and she mumbled, "Country H?" "Yeah, that's all I got. So, he might be there. Quinn, since I told you this, can I stay? I don't know anyone else," Casey pleaded with puppy eyes.
Being young and uneducated, Casey couldn't find a job, making it tough to get by.
Luckily, Oliver had seen this coming and left her a business card, offering her a place to stay.
Quinn nodded slightly, a bit distracted. "Alright, you can stay." Casey lit up with joy. She jumped up from the chair and was about to kneel again, but Quinn stopped her just in time. "Enough." Casey felt a bit awkward and grinned at Quinn. "Sorry, force of habit." Where she cfrom, kneeling was pretty common.
Quinn looked at Casey, her brows furrowing again. Casey was only fifteen or sixteen; what could she have her do? Casey stared at Quinn, thinking about that day at the hospital, grateful she had the guts to take that step and get out of that place.
"You haven't been to school, have you?" Quinn asked.
Casey nodded. "Nope, but my mom taughtsstuff. I can read most words." "That's good. Means you don't have to start from scratch. Since you have a foundation, you should start by going to school. I don't need you to do anything here," Quinn said.
