You are well?" Hunter asked in English.
"I'm better." She threw a worried glance at the doorway. "Is that awful boy still out there?"
He had expected questions about Loretta. "Swift Antelope?"
"Is that his name? I don't like him."
"Ah, I see." Hunter pursed his lips. "You have reason?"
"I just don't like him." She gave a delicate shudder and wrinkled her nose. "He stares at me funny."
Hunter guessed that Swift Antelope had been mooning, not staring, but he thought it unwise to tell Amy that.
