He Is Not Good

Avery broke down at Evelyn's question, tears streaming down her face. She stood up and hugged Evelyn tightly, her body shaking with sobs. She had been holding back until now, trying to be the courageous kid for her family, but she couldn't hold it in any longer.

Everyone turned emotional as the best friends cried in each other's arms. Gracia turned away and wiped her tears, holding William's hand. Though he showed no expression, he seemed broken deep inside.
