she had lost count of the letters she had received, but no one had ever offered to write her a guarantee. She sighed and said, "Alright, you can. But think carefully. If you make a promise, you must keep it, or I'll never trust you again."
"Don't worry, Mrs. Wilson. I'll keep my word," Kevin said seriously. "If I fail you, I'll disappear from your life."
"Alright, enough of that." Mia said with a gentle smile. Looking up, she saw a newly opened supermarket and said, "Let's go inside. Are you hungry? I'll treat you to lunch." Just then, Kevin's stomach growled, making her laugh. Her eyes sparkled, and she looked radiant.
Kevin felt a bit embarrassed. At his age, he often felt hungry soon after eating. Most students kept snacks at their desks to replenish their energy. Kevin, being tall and active, burned calories quickly and got hungry faster than most. Whenever he visited Camila in her office, she would give him chocolates to keep his strength up for their sessions.
