James Brown held Emma Campbell softly as they walked toward the school, explaining to her what had happened during the day.

James suddenly felt an immense guilt rise within him and involuntarily sighed.

Emma was startled and said anxiously, "Big Brother Brown, did I actually mess things up for you?"
