The start of something new

( The real world )

Leo and Amanda's friendship progressed steadily in the months following their transfer together to sector D.

They became increasingly closer to each other as often the two of them would talk about their lives on Earth and about their past to each other once they returned from work.

Ever since she cried on his shoulders, Leo began feeling a sense of protectiveness for Amanda as he began to look out for her in his own way.

He would check on her task that she received for the day and ensured to ask about how it went at the end.

He would ask her if she ate properly and ask if anyone bullied her, showing daily that he cared, slowly building on her trust which she had in him.
