When Rory came back after putting Ellie to a nap, she saw Mrs. Delport and Liam sitting in the living room in silence. She didn't hear Liam screaming for the past thirty minutes she was there, so she couldn't even guess what they talked about.
Mrs. Delport stood up and walked to her. "Help me with the lunch," she asked Rory.
Rory checked on Liam. He was staring at the floor. He looked dejected. Rory's first instinct was to run to him and comfort him.
"Come on," Mrs. Delport called her before she ran to him.
Rory could see that Mrs. Delport wants to talk to her about something and so she followed her.
"He's... Let him be alone for some time," she said.
Rory only got more curious about what Mrs. Delport told him that was so shocking for him.
"What did you tell him?" She asked.
Mrs. Delport sighed and started plating the dishes. Rory was more surprised. What is that they talked about that she cannot know?
