Clarity

Leo walked languidly beside Lala towards their class, no sound came out of their mouths. Leo glanced at Lala who was looking straight ahead without even looking at her.

"La." Call Leo.

Lala turned around, "What's wrong?"

Leo stopped his steps, then faced Lala "I'm sorry, La." Leo said in a sad tone.

"Never mind, I have forgiven you, just forget it."

"But La, you must be traumatized because of the attempted rape by Mr. William."

"Don't talk about it anymore, let's forget it." Lala replied with a small smile, then continued her steps towards their class. Leo took a deep breath, then followed Lala's steps to their class.

Just as the recess bell rang, Lala and Leo arrived at their class, and were greeted by the curious gazes of the four siblings.

Leo looked at Silvia who was tidying up her books on the table. Then slowly he approached, "Sil, I want to tell you something." he said.

"What are you talking about?" Silvia said curtly.
