Lianne sighed.
It wasn't that she hated her father. She loved him.
There was just this love-hate relationship because he didn't really know how to deal with her. Lianne was also well aware of how much he loved her, but it didn't make what he said, or did, hurt any less.
Even when he didn't mean it the way he said it.
She was sure that he was going to give her some life advice on the way home and most likely full of 'not disturbing Mr. Kyle so much' speech.
Once she reached her brother's class, she noted tha the teacher had stopped the lessons and the class was doing some work. She knocked politely, and requested to see Joseph.
Joseph, upon hearing his sister's voice, looked up and then at the teacher. She nodded, saying, "Five minutes."
Thanking the teacher as he passed her, he walked out and asked her in the corridor, "What's wrong?"
