Chapter 72: A Life Saved

It was the weekend.

Normally, the students of class 22D would not have a break, but their progress had far exceeded Tina's expectations, so she allowed them to take a regular weekend. On this day off, Hugo and Jennie went back to Jennie's hometown.

There had been an incident in Jennie's family. She didn't specify what, only mentioning it was inconvenient to take Zackary along and asked Tina to look after him. Jennie had prepared both breakfast and lunch; all Tina needed to do was heat them up.

Tina, having no experience with children, occasionally played with Zackary when Hugo and the others were home.

After playing with toys for half an hour, Zackary grew bored. "Tina, I don't want to play with toys anymore."

"What would you like to play then?" Tina's own childhood hadn't been joyful, and she didn't know what children his age enjoyed.

Zackary looked down, too scared to speak.

Although Tina was gentle, he was inexplicably frightened of her.

He was afraid that if he asked for too much, Tina would get angry.

His mother had instructed him not to anger Tina and to always listen to her.

"Are you very scared of me?" Tina sat next to him and gently touched his head, trying to soften her voice as much as possible.

"I-I'm not scared!" Zackary said, conflicted.

He didn't want to lie, but telling the truth might hurt Tina.

Tina could sense the boy's dilemma, pinched the bridge of her nose in resignation, and wondered if she really looked that intimidating.

She always spoke to Zackary in the gentlest tones and couldn't understand where the fear stemmed from.
