moustache, quiet suits. All my money went to Greta and she changed her name to Ross. I told her
to buy this island. Now I invest her money. The money that was mine. And now I’m James ross.

C: What about Jake Rosso? I asked.

R: JAKE Rosso took drugs, he said. Jake Rosso got drunk and crashed cars. He killed a young girl, so
he had to “die”. I can never forget the girl. I think about her every day.

C: and that’s why you always look so sad.

I’m never going to take drugs. But I need this room, to remember.

C: I am not going to say anything. I won’t tell my mother, I won’t tell anybody.

R: I think you understand.

C: I do. I’ve done bad things. I want to forget them, too. I needed to get a way, to hide, too. That’s
why we came to England, to begin a new life. Yes, I understand
