Chapter 46 Feeling Bad For The Little Girl
Rosalie nodded noncommittally. She held the boys' hands and headed over to greet the teacher.
Just as they were about to leave, her eyes unconsciously fell onto the little girl again. Noticing that the three of them seemed to be leaving, Estie hurriedly stood up from the slide and looked at them straight. The teacher who had been at the side was afraid of her falling. She quickly reached out and grabbed her.
"She's."
Rosalie hesitated for a moment but could not stop herself from worrying.
The two had already guessed what she wanted to ask and rushed to answer, "Mommy, she also goes to school here and is in the same class with us! Her parents haven't arrived to pick her up yet today, so she was waiting here with us!" Rosalie nodded with understanding. She glanced at the little girl in front of her and went soft, but she did not intend to stay. After all, it was likely that it was either Byron or Wendy who would be coming to pick her up later.
She did not want to see either of them again.
The little girl obviously did not want her to leave just like this, however.
Rosalie did not want to disappoint her, so she caressed her head while keeping her smile on." Your parents should be coming soon. I need to leave first now. You should listen to your teacher and wait with her, alright?" She was about to turn around and leave after saying this, but she was grabbed by the little girl. Rosalie could not help stopping. She glanced down. The little girl shook her head stubbornly, her eyes somewhat red. Seeing the little girl's appearance, Rosalie felt inexplicably bad for her that she could not really move.
The teacher to the side noticed that Estie was insistent on not letting Rosalie leave and sighed helplessly. She came up to Rosalie and said, "Estelle has been very attached to Lucian and Nox recently. She's a little autistic, so usually none of the children are willing to play with her in school. Lucian and Nox protected her on their first day of class. It might be because of this that she has been very dependent on them. She may be afraid seeing that they're about to leave now..."
Hearing the little girl's situation, Rosalie felt the discomfort in her heart grow more and more.
This little girl was unexpectedly not only nonspeaking but also autistic.
It was no wonder that the teacher had allowed the two to wait at one side.
However...
Thinking of the two individuals who would be appearing in a while, Rosalie was still hesitant. The teacher coaxed her softly for a bit, but Estie was unwilling to let Rosalie go no matter what. After a while, the teacher asked Rosalie somewhat embarrassedly, "Are you in a hurry? If not, why don't we have a chat? I haven't told you much about Lucian and Nox after they joined the class." Naturaliy, Rosalie could tell that the teacher just wanted to use the topic of Lucian and Nox to have her wait here with the little girl. The little girl was also looking at her eagerly. Faced with the little girl's gaze, Rosalie ended up not voicing the refusal that was already at the tip of her tongue for some reason. She swallowed the words and nodded to the teacher. Seeing her agreement, Estie's eyes shone bright again. She tugged the corner of her clothes and leaned carefully into her side. From a distance, it looked like she was leaning into Rosalie's arms. Aware of her small actions, Rosalie did not stop her or fret over her. She just casually chatted with the teacher about her two boys.
