"H-hey, why... Why are you crying all of a sudden?" Alice asked.
Clarissa kept crying and Miss Stella walked around from behind and desk.
She squatted next to Clarissa and stretched out a handkerchief.
"Clarissa, is there something that's happening that you can't talk about?" Miss Stella asked. "It's alright, you can talk to me about it."
"But... But I don't know." Clarissa said, raising her head and showing her teary face. "I don't know why either. I just hated her the moment I saw her and... I was angry with anything she did.

"What are you talking about, Clarissa?" Miss Stella asked. "Lance isn't missing. He's just staying at home for personal reasons."
"Really?" Clarissa asked, looking shocked.
