Grennan returns to Kathmandu to meet Liz and two of his college friends, Kelly and Beth, who have also come to visit. All three visitors stay at Grennan’s spacious apartment near NGN’s Dhaulagiri House. During Grennan’s trip into Humla, Farid has helped to rescue 26 different children, who are now all staying at the children’s home along with the six missing children Grennan helped to locate. The seventh lost child, Bishnu, is still missing.
Grennan and Liz immediately bond with the new children at Dhaulagiri House. “The kids spoke little English, but as I had learned long ago, language isn’t always necessary when interacting with kids” (229). The author is impressed by Liz’s quick bond with the little girls, who fawn over her. Although at first the two found it hard to interact in person in comparison to the ease with which they communicated via email, the lovers develop a close relationship in Kathmandu within a few short days.
Once Liz and Grennan’s two college friends depart from Kathmandu, Grennan travels to Godawari to reconnect with the children at Little Princes. He brings with him a slideshow of images and a folder of notes to show the kids their parents.
