“Mother requested your immediate presence,” Laurel relayed.
From the outset, Laurel held no fondness for Millie, and witnessing Roland's
advances only intensified her sense of humiliation.
“I'LL return soon. Leave me to my business.” Roland's voice erupted in an
impatient yell.
Clamping her teeth together, Laurel directed a silent curse towards him within her

Millie's resolute stride resumed its course.
“Millie, moderate your pace. Await my company,” Roland entreated.
Promptly, Roland trailed behind her footsteps. Millie, meanwhile, massaged the
space between her brows, a vexation taking root.
After a stretch of walking, Millie halted beside a single plank bridge. It marked a
route back home-a familiar path she chose to tread.
“Hold on, Millie. Allow me to lead. Recent rains might have eroded the single
plank bridge,” cautioned Roland as he interjected, detaining Millie.

Millie stepped onto the bridge, and Laurel followed suit. The prospect of a
leisurely walk outdoors proved more appealing than staying home in boredom.
