Leo and Ainy sat opposite to each other outside Mrs. Stacey's room waiting for them to be called in when the former visitors left. When they were called in, they sat down in the two chairs, no smiles but large frowns contradictory to Stacey who was giving them both a broad smile.

"Ainy, Leo; How are matters heading, is it working between you guys?"

"He doesn't want it worked, I think he's no longer interested in me being with him" Ainy began.
