When Graven was about to leave the house to go to his father to ask permission for the picnic, he saw Rebecca walking on the path approaching his house.
He waited for her outside the door. She registered a troubled look on her face.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
"Let's talk inside, something comes up," she replied.
They entered the house not bothering to settle on the chairs located a few steps from where they stood behind the closed door.
"Spill!" Graven said.
Rebecca was shaking her head. "Laura told me a secret about her life..."
"Okay, go on... tell me about it," he said, curious to know what Laura revealed this time.
Rebecca sat on the chair, Graven followed suit.
