I stuck my hand out to formally greet Mr. Sepha, which he happily returned a shake back.
“Headmaster Sepha sir, I am here to ask you for permission to be able to take Lea out for the day.” I nervously told him.
The man continued to stare at me for a moment, before smiling once more and saying:
“Well I don’t think that could be too much trouble.”
Another great relief swept over my body.
“Now let’s see… You are the unofficial guardian of Lea Summers either way, am I correct?” He asked softly.
“Yes! Yes I am; in about 2 weeks the paperwork should go through, making me her permanent guardian.” I hastily replied.
