Chapter 27

''I'm dressed up now, you can turnaround'' Harold told Lily after he had put on his clothes. Lily felt bad for him. She wondered if he should not punish her for intruding on him the way she had just done.

She heaved a sigh of relief when she turned around to see that he was indeed very well-dressed, then she headed down to have breakfast with Harold after taking a shower and getting dressed for the day as well.

''Are you okay son?'' Mr Bamak, who was already sitting at the dining said to Harold when he saw him approaching for breakfast.

''You look drained, I hope you are okay, sleep well?'' Mr Bamak asked Harold. Lily looked at Harold to see that his eyes were sullen. They had sank into it's depth, and were bloodshot. He looked as if he had been crying, or was trying to control his anger concerning whatever it was, to the extent that his eyes looked stressed.

''Is he okay? Did he not sleep well?'' Mr Bamak asked Lily this time.
