I silently stared at Leonora while she watched the movie. There were tears in her eyes and she had been wiping it off, not wanting to alert anyone. It was a family drama and the moment the mother and father fought, I noticed the tears in her eyes.
I had never spoken to her about her family. It wasn't easy for a kitchen volunteer to trace their history because some of them were children of rogues who begged for refuge. For some of them, their parents died during a war. I knew it was going to be a touchy topic so I never wanted to ask her but now i felt like it was something that we needed to talk about.
There was something weird that I witnessed before the movie started. She had walked in with Claire. Bethany had her mouth agape as we watched them laugh before sitting down. There wasn't any awkward tension between them and I was shocked but happy. Happy that they were both on the same page and possibly heading towards having a cordial relationship.
