Courtney Goes to School?

In the midst of their lessons, Courtney was repeatedly sneaking small glances at her mother.

After a while, Lailah finally noticed that her daughter wasn't quite paying attention as much as before.

She checked the time and realized that they were still an hour away from their scheduled end time.

"What's wrong, pea? Ready to end things for the day already?"

Courtney eventually shook her head and placed her little crayon on the table.

"…Why were you and Nani fighting earlier?"

The color nearly drained from Lailah's face when she realized that her bribe of promising sugar after the lesson hadn't made Courtney forget everything like it was supposed to.

"O-Oh, well… You know we weren't really fighting, just having a small disagreement is all."

"About what?"

"Y-ou are relentless, huh..?"

Courtney's big red eyes bored into Lailah as she silently waited for an answer.
