Layla took the phone and looked at her mother from the screen, before muttering, “Mom, he didn’t knock when he came in...so I thought bad people had come inside...” 

She did not have the courage to confess to Avery.If only her brother was around.

Layla decided that he would tell her brother about what happened when he got home so that he could help come up with a solution. 

Avery relaxed at Layla‘s explanation and said gently, “Layla, I feel like you are in a bad mood today. Did something happen at your classmate‘s place? Don‘t be scared, you can tell me anything.”

“Layla went to her classmate‘s house today?‘ He thought, ‘it must have something to do with why she is acting odd.‘ 

“I‘m fine, Mom,” Layla said while sneaking a glance at Elliot‘s direction. 

“If something happened, you have to tell me. You can call me anytime you want,” Avery reminded.
