Joseph found himself puzzled by the ongoing conversation and decided to intervene, suggesting, “Ms. Thome, why not relax a bit more today and stay with us for a while? The dean and other teachers will soon be arriving, and you’ll have the opportunity to catch up with them…”

“No, I need to get going; it’s starting to get dark,” Lysander replied. “My Kitten at home tends to get anxious when I’m not there.”

Lysander simply nodded in agreement, “Mhm”

Yet, Joseph, curious, remarked, “But from what I understand, Kittens aren’t usually afraid of the dark, are. they?”

“Our Kitten has always been unusually timid.”

Joseph seemed poised to delve deeper into the topic, but before he could formulate his thoughts into words, Josiah had already grasped Lysander’s sleeve and, without waiting for further discussion, briskly led

her away.

It appeared Josiah had been restraining himself for some time, for as soon as they exited the ward, he couldn’t hold back his irritation. With a chilly tone, he questioned, “Does he always have such a talent for twisting the truth?”

He didn’t care if Joseph overheard this remark; perhaps it would even be better if he did.

Quick to leave the premises of the hospital, Lysander directed, “We should discuss this outside.”

Josiah, following closely behind with palpable frustration, stepped into the elevator with her.

The elevator descended.

Once confined within the elevator, Josiah, despite the public setting, barely managed to contain his emotions. “His injuries were minor. He should be discharged soon. As a medical professional, can’t you see that?”

Lysander, sensing his agitation, replied, “Did you feel that?”

“What?”

The emotions I felt when I first heard Lysanne speak,” Lysander explained, “you should try to understand that feeling.”

Josiah paused briefly, reflecting, “Back then, I was… blind to what was obvious.”

He clenched his teeth slightly as he finished his thought, the realization hitting him like a boomerang. leaving him emotionally shattered.

The elevator reached the ground floor.

Josiah momentarily lost his train of thought, his steps faltering. Catching up to Lysander, he swiftly shifted the conversation, devoid of any previous emotion, “Enough about him. Let me walk you home.”
