It was worrying that his mother felt strongly enough about this that she planned to go and find his father at work. But at the same time it was reassuring that she was willing to go so far to protect them, he felt safe in the knowledge that she had the matter under control.

He was only as good as his parents pushed him to be. He watched her leave and then set about doing exactly what she had told him, bolting the door behind him before locking and bolting the back door. He moved around the house to make sure all the windows were locked and the lights off.
