Callie and Nikki walked along the beach, contemplating Christopher's sudden departure from the Island and International Rescue.
"Why would he leave so quickly? I know he said that he wasn't cut out for life here but there has to be more to it than that, right?"
Callie shrugged at Nikki's question. "I don't know. I wish I did though." She shook her head. "He must have been thinking about his decision for some time. He could have told us in advance. Maybe we could've talked him out of it or at least given him a goodbye dinner."
"I know I haven't known him for long, but he just didn't seem like the type to give up on something like this. Maybe Mr Tracy knows more to Christopher's quick departure."
"Are you going to ask him?"
Nikki shook her head. "No. If there was something more to this, and he wanted us to know about it, then he would tell us. I'm not going to go and start questioning him. You never know; it may be nothing and Christopher really wasn't cut out for life here." Both were silent for a while, trying to think of something other than Christopher leaving. Feeling the heat from the sun bearing down, Nikki spoke up. "I need a drink. Want to come up and join me?"
