Chapter 42: A New Name

Leander went to his side of the closet and started dressing. He just wanted to talk to her for some time. But she doesn't like to.

It hurt. His heart pounded out of fear. He didn't want to bring her there. He didn't have a good feeling. He found out that his grandfather was still planning on announcing his engagement with that lamebrain. But he couldn't get why his grandfather still wanted her at the party. And there is Evander.

What if he recognized her?

His stomach rumbled out of fear. He didn't remember the last time he was this afraid of something. 

He took in deep breaths to find out what he was afraid of. It's something simple he does that works every time. Oftentimes, we fear something that is not under our control. Once we accept that being afraid can't do a thing, we can find a way to cope.
