The man barely hesitated and told the boys that he was the girl’s father’s friend. He said that he was looking after her because she was highly intoxicated – which was true.
He told them that he had been trying to get ahold of her father on the phone but no one was picking up the other end. He said that he was waiting with her until he could get a lift to take her home. The boys didn’t ask any more of the man, for his explanation sounded pretty legitimate.

The girl had stopped crying out and didn’t argue that he was lying. Instead, the young girl just stayed quiet, allowing the man to explain his story. Therefore, the four boys believed the man and had no further reason to doubt him.
Although the girl “was all scuffed up and dirty,” she hadn’t protested his reply, and the boys later stated that you just don’t want to think the worst of people. Many hope that the situation is nothing alarming. Surely everything will just work out fine?
