78 LXXVII

THREE MONTHS HAD PASSED since their graduation day and since her last conversation with Samuel.

Laia had not heard of a single thing from the boy since.

She tried to distract herself from constantly thinking and worrying about the boy with her upcoming college life but it proved to be useless. No amount of studying in advance and reading textbooks and materials for her course diverted her attention from thinking of Samuel and his current whereabouts.

It also didn't help how her days became repetitive and dull as the days went by, especially with how her mother still wasn't home often since she was always either working or taking care of Laia's grandmother which led to the girl always ending up to be alone in their empty house.
