Skylark

Krystle pursed her lips looking at her father. She was explaining to them about Linus's new project but was cut off and then he was humiliating Linus. It was the first time she was seeing her father insulting a person because of their work. She had expected them to support her and Linus. 

Linus tried to intervene and talk calmly, "Mr. and Mrs. Lewis, please calm down. Take a seat, we will talk." He stayed composed, trying to cool the air and have a good conversation.

But Father Lewis looked at him accusingly as if Linus should have never crossed paths with his daughter. Pointing his fingers at Linus, "I am not talking with you." It came like a warning to make him silent.

Linus clenched his fist. He had heard about the Lewis family, never anything wrong about them. Even Krystle always spoke with them, like conversing with best friends. This was going completely out of control.

If they don't let them speak, how are they going to assure them?
