Lana's POV
One week after our exchange during the test, I get an email from him. When I notice it, my heart skips a beat. I stop immediately my cooking and put my knife and onion down. What does he want?
I open my email account and his email.
Hi Lana,
I hope you are well.
I just wanted you to know that if you need to talk about your parents or anything else, I am here for you. I promise that if you express this sort of need, and we meet, I'll behave. I won't do something like that again unless you ask me to. That's a promise too.
I think our conversation made me feel a little better, so I would really appreciate it if we did meet sometime. As friends, or even just for teacher-student bonding if you want.
Hoping you'll agree to this,
Aaron
In the aftermath of our conversation, I had spent a lot of time crying over the death of my parents. It had sparked something in me, or rather my problems had caught up with me, thousands of miles from home. I read everywhere that everyone grieves their own way. Well, denial is my way. And moving out of the country. But I know that speaking about it with him will help. And I want to see him again.
I decide not to think about it too long and I answer him.
Hey Aaron,
I hope you and your sister are both well too.
Talking about my situation probably helped me too. But it is hard right now. I do think it would help to talk about it to someone. Although I'm not sure it's really appropriate, I guess we could meet somewhere, in a public place, to have a nice platonic teacher-student bonding moment.
I'm free after class, around 4:30PM and later, on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays.
Lana
PS: I gave you an F.
