"I've asked for a few days off for you, and you can go back to school when the final exams are due." My mother was sitting on the sofa, with the plaster her grandma gave her on her forehead. In just a few days, my mother would have been forever. The pulled face is longer, and occasionally the nasolabial folds can be seen extending to the chin.
Miles Chu didn't say anything. He didn't know what he should do now.
He didn't want to go to school in the first place, but he was a little reluctant to just take a leave of absence. But let's go, when he got to school and faced those looks and ridicules, he felt depressed again, and maybe he would... Some people want to "remove harm for the people"...
"Go and stay with your father for a few days," my mother said. "By the way, ask them if they know where else your father can go."
Chu nodded.
