When His Eyes Opened

Elliot remained in the same spot. Avery soon quickly walked over to him.

“When did you come?” Avery looked at him. There was not any expression on his face. He looked away and said in a very low voice, “Yesterday.”

“What are you doing here?” Avery raised her voice. “Did you come alone?”

She did not know why she wanted to stop him nor why she asked him these questions.

“There’s a speech at a school.” Elliot swallowed his saliva. He could not help but look at her.

“I studied here for a year in high school. I’m going to give a speech in the afternoon. Do you want to go?”

Avery was a little disappointed. She did not hide it verycd well.
