Capítulo 126: Speak Of The Devil..

Henry soon walked into the classroom, his face downcast as he replayed the conversation between Rachel and Jessica in his mind.

"Drugs? Baby? She's pregnant?" he murmured under his breath, the weight of his thoughts pressing heavily on him.

"Hey! When did you start missing class? I hope you realize exams are just around the corner," Lara said, her voice sharp with concern as her eyes landed on Henry. "Where is everyone, though? Jessica, Rachel, Aiden... Where the hell are they?"

Instead of responding, Henry made his way to his seat, slumped down, and buried his head in his arms, his shoulders shaking with barely concealed sobs. He didn't want his friends to know the depth of his despair.

"What's wrong with him?" Lara asked, turning to Mark, who simply shook his head, equally clueless. "He just ignored me, like... seriously?"

"Just leave him be. He's probably going through something tough," Mark suggested, his voice gentle and understanding.
