Helanie:
I couldn't make Lamar speak with me. And in anger, I just didn't want to request a talk with him either. Lucy returned with more food and sat in the bed to eat alone with a smile on her lips.
I wanted to speak with her, but she looked so comfortable that I felt guilty for almost trying to make her cry over the injustice that happened to her. But since it was too early to do so, I decided to give her a day. She would probably be herself by the morning. Denial could be dangerous.
I lay down in the bed after Lucy was done eating, and we both fell asleep before I woke up in the middle of the night at the sound of the door closing. Rubbing my eyes to confirm, it was Lamar who had left.
