26. Flower

After the lecture was over, Lillie and Amy walked out of the auditorium and into the canteen for lunch. After getting their lunch they both found a bench and sat outside the canteen.

"So, where have been, last weekend was your birthday but you were nowhere to be seen. We were worried about you." Amy asked as soon as they were seated

"I lost my aunt during the weekend." was all Lillie could say. She did not go into details knowing how bizarre it would sound to the listener.

Amy covered her mouth with her palm and moved closer to Lillie and held her hands in hers. "I am. So sorry, Lillie. Are you okay? You should have called me." Amy said becoming emotional.

"I am fine now, Amy, didn't worry too much," Lillie said trying to comfort her friend when it should be the other way around. "See, I am back now."
