Sixty Four

DECLAN POV

I went to Lily's room to comfort her.

To my surprise, I didn't meet her crying, rather she was on her phone laughing.

"Oh! Done with breakfast so soon?" she asked me.

"I left to comfort you but you don't seem to be in need of comforting." I tell her, still confused by her demeanor.

"And why would I need comforting?" she asked me.

I was flabbergasted at her question.

"You just ran out of breakfast upset over our parents words?"

"Oh! That! I just wanted to escape from the table." she said with a shrug.

I sighed as I sat on the bed with her.

"And I was really worried about you." I told her.

"I am sorry, I didn't mean to make you worry."

"Are you sure you are really okay?" l asked her.

"Yes, I am sure. I have gotten used to their words, as far as I know it's not true, they can talk about it all they want."

"Look at you being all mature."

"I learnt from you."
