Chapter 122: Moving On

"I've been meaning to ask, it's about Jean," Guy asked Goran.

"Is it about her... demeanour? I apologise on her behalf, Teacher Larks," Goran immediately proclaimed his remorse without hesitation.

"Why are you apologising?"

"I'm mostly at fault for why she is like this," Goran said, drooping his head in dejection.

Guy could feel the weight in Goran's voice, so he immediately led him into his room and shut the door.

"Take a seat please," Guy said casually. Of course, there weren't any "seats" available in his room. But Goran understood nonetheless and presumed a seated position next to the low table at the centre, right in front of Guy's folded sleeping mattress. Guy followed Goran and sat opposite him.

"If you don't mind, I would like to hear the full story," Guy enunciated in a calm and low tone.
