His Eagle Eyes on Me

Amy squeezed two drops of eye drops into both her eyes and crawled into bed next to Layla. Layla took a deep breath and made the call.

Eric stood by the bedroom door to watch the two.

Avery answered the call right away, and Layla started lying through her teeth. "Mom, I can't come home this weekend! Amy got dumped, and I need to stay with her this weekend!"

Avery was taken by surprise at first, but soon noticed Amy, who appeared to be sobbing next to Layla.

"Amy, it's going to be alright. Don't cry!" Avery had met Amy before. Layla had brought her home for dinner, Avery's impression of Amy was that she was a polite and enthusiastic young woman.

"Of course... I know that you two are close. Layla will stay with you then. Don't get too upset, okay?" Avery said hastily. "You will definitely find a better boyfriend in the future. If you broke up, it just means that you weren't right for each other!"

Amy nodded. "You are right... but I am still so sad... Maybe I just need time!"
