Lydia's POV
"You'd come there to protect me from my own parents?" He turns his full body towards me and I nod vigorously, almost enthusiastically even. "I want you to understand that I don't want to be a burden to you either. I want to make sure you're safe too, Levi. I promise I won't get into trouble. Please let me come with you. Please..."
Saying that I walk close to him and let myself leech onto him like a koala. He stays motionless for a few seconds as if thinking about what to do next.
How would he reply to me now...?
"Well...fine. If you're insisting..." he sounded unsure even now.
"We will leave tomorrow." Saying, Levi suddenly pulls me off of his body and walks away. I hear his footsteps fade, he climbs upstairs into his room.
