''My father… '' she paused, her tears drowning her voice.
''He doesn't want us to be together. '' Claire's eyes shut as she held his shirt, her lips trembling.
''I don't know what to do… '' she cried, her eyes so heavy. There was a minute silence and then Leo laughed as though he did not know the weight of what she just said;
''haha, is that why you're so sad? He's just being concerned, he doesn't mean it. '' He said, pulling her close so he could hug her,
''No, he meant it… he meant every word. '' Claire tried to pull away from him so she could stare in his eyes and tell him how serious the matter is, but Leo held her put;
''It's okay, it's okay, stop crying now. '' Leo patted on her back, trying to console her. She struggled for a moment before she finally calmed down, even if she cried from now till the next day, nothing would change. She needed to be sane to know what to do.
