    I am sorry about that and I was concerned about not updating. I now have my laptop so I can work on updating. Unfortunately, I am still in the hospital and interruptions seem to be the way of life. I will continue to update as they give me the time.

    I think Armand is reflecting on Pat not having a partner while Colin has taken into account the new versus old orphanage

    Thanks Chris. Laying in a hospital knowing that I need to update was bothering me. I finally got someone to bring me my laptop. I'll continue to add chapters as I finish I'll update. I feel sorry for Armand, he never has a moment to him self oops I have said too much. Hopefully, I'll have another chapter in a few days.

    Thank you. I am still in the hospital and finally got my computer to allow me to continue ARROW. GG will always be supporting Armand. I won't be posting often but I will post as I finish a chapter. Laying in a hospital and typing without interruptions is almost an impossibility. But I will try.

    Unfortunately I have had the good luck of spending my sabbatical in a hospital where I am currently residing. I'll be home by the end of May. i will try and update ARROW as time permits.

    Chapter 171

    Life continues, upsets only breaks the monotony, and adds a little spice to our life. Colin was smiling more, Richie called him slave master. I would listen to their arguments. Ritchie wanted more pay, Colin told him he painted his name on the door to the private bathroom, that was enough. The next argument he told Ritchie his name is on the wall in the vestibule. Ritchie took a picture, there was his name, written in crayon. I knew Colin had a sign made up listing the firm as Roberts, Roberts,

    Your comments require me to think 1. Mary couldn't make the decision if she knew the outcome. she had faith in the Doctor's comments 2. Yes 3. There are several candidates but GG hasn't told me. 4. There are two Maries. One was a friend of Ritchie's mother, and the second Marie was Mary's maid. For clarification, you can check the early chapters

    You are right. GG is Armand's spiritual guide. He will know and prepare accordingly

    You may be right. I expect visits to Paris but that will be short visits. If Italy visits in the fall and Spain in the early spring, friendships will be renewed. There may be a trip to the village. Armand and Pepr will want to make a trip to view special resting places.

    Chapter 170

    Colin was coming home more and more upset. I called and made an appointment with John’s doctor. I told Mary first and then Colin. The day of the appointment John said he wasn’t going. Mary and Colin dressed him in his golf clothes. Colin said they were going golfing. Instead they went to the doctor’s office. Colin told his dad he needed to see the doctor. Walking into the office, Colin asked for the doctor to look at his finger. While the doctor did that he asked John how was his golf game. Joh

    John or Mary are unaware of GG. Colin knows about her but hasn't met her. She comes to Armand and lets him pass on the info to Colin

    Colin's father will be dead as a result of the operation. he won't make it to Christmas. Armand's painting is a result of his sadness for Colin. That painting will stay hidden until life returns to normal. It won't be sold.

    Chapter 169

    If you had 4 boys and you take one to buy clothes, you can count on the other three going along. Then it goes like this, you take the boy you brought and start buying him clothes, and you come to T-shirts. one of the three who didn't come to get new clothes, picks out one of the shirts, "Dad, can I buy this? My other one is too tight." you don't say no and soon the other three need something. It happens and I think Armand knows it.

    I attempted to show the effect of being a macho man. Colin's father would be alive if he had seen his doctor on a regular basis. He didn't and the growth has taken over.

    Chapter 169

    The boys' response, when is he leaving, is so typical. The passing of Colin's father is a typical occurrence if you ignore it, He had the original operation when the group was in Paris, if he had continued to see the doctor for checkups, he may have been still here. He didn't and the growth was too large. Mary made the right decision.

    Walking into Pete’s he was surprised to see me. Arnaud looked around and when he saw the painting over the cash register, “Did you paint that?” “Yes. Colin and I ate here when we were students. I remember when I gave him that painting, Colin’s mother made a big fuss over it. She told Pete he needed to take precautions because it was worth a lot of money. He had the box built and it is wired.” “Do you make it a habit of giving your paintings away?” “No, but in those days we ate her

    I am sure you and most of my readers who are presented with a similar situation would react the same way. How could anyone turn their back and walked away, that individual has no place among humanity.

    Between you and I, I'm not sure Arnaud is going to create a Home for Paris street boys. They are older and probably street-wise by now. He has a lot of groundwork to do.

    Thanks, Pepe has a good friend in Tommy. They were close over the years

    Armand, Colin, and the boys spending time in Italy have helped Pepe to make the change. He will be loved and GG will take charge of his dreams.

    I would bet GG will help Armand to reach out to Arnaud. I know it won't be like the Home.

    Yes, I know Armand was not happy when James had to leave when he reached 18. Thinking about that, I wasn't ready to leave home when I was that age, I was in the university, working to pay fees, etc. No way could I afford a flat.
