Rose did stand paralyzed. She couldn't bear the thought of being responsible for James suffering some terrible fate, no matter how much the child got under her skin. He was only a child after all. She didn't understand how Benny and Mr. Meijer could be fine with it. Though she wasn't surprised. But Benny making her responsible suddenly put her in a tight spot. She didn't want to suffer Mr. Meijer's wrath. She didn't catch James when Benny pushed him towards her, and stood undecided as he darted away. "I... James!" But she didn't run after him. Shit. Mr. Meijer would have her head.
