No sense of Awareness

Leo finally took his eyes off her and walked out of the room without even looking back at her. He felt wronged. This was the first time he had shown worry for someone except his family, yet all he got were glares and cold eyes in return.

But she was no better. When Leo left without even asking her to come with him, she felt like he was behaving like he had her own. Though she had always been aware that society was not equal for both of them, this was the first time that she was feeling the disparity. 

"Evangeline.'' Miss Parker called her with worry, she knew how difficult it could be to cope in a new family and new relationships. But she even knew how difficult it was to live alone for a single woman in this vile world. And she could understand the reasoning of Leo. she could see he was worried about her or else why would he waste all his time to come here and even argue with them for her.
