453 Luiz Material

"Hey, Nari, you seem awfully sad lately. Maybe I can cheer you up," Aiden suggested while trying to catch up with Nari as she stepped outside of their class. "Do you - want to hang out?"

Nari let out a sigh. She checked the time and realize how it was still early. Their professor wrapped up the discussion earlier than anticipated. 

"Ummm. I suppose it's fine," said Nari in a weak voice. "My brother won't be here for an hour."

For the past month, since Luiz left, she rode with Geun rather than asking her Uncle Kael to fetch her.

Kael was very bad at consoling Nari. She felt her loneliness grew worse over time. Kael was also saddened by Luiz's sudden departure. Like Anton, Kael treated Luiz's like his own son. After all, he brought the kids to school since they were in middle school. 

At least with Geun, he would make Nari angry to the point that she would just forget about missing Luiz! An argument with Geun was much entertaining for Nari nowadays.
