I couldn't get the answer from grownup Brian. I always felt that I was on a cliffhanger. It was very tormenting.
I was willing to believe him, but my curiosity was even stronger.
Brian didn't come to class during the day.
David told me that Brian had a fracture after being hit by a ball yesterday, so the school gave him a day off to recuperate at home. If I wanted to visit him, David would give me Brian's home address.
Avery helped me too. "Yes, Brian got injured because of you, so you should go and visit him."
I thought for a while and decided to go there.
Avery agreed to go with me. Before leaving, she suddenly changed her mind and said that there was something else for her to do, so she asked me to go alone.
I had no choice but to do so.
When I arrived at Brian's house, his family's housekeeper warmly welcomed me. She told me that Brian was upstairs, and she took me up.
