Leo smiled when she said she played soccer, he thought it was so cool when girls were as into sports as he was. Leo nodded understandingly as she explained she couldn’t stay on a team. His reason was different but he understood having to step away from a sport you loved. “I understand.” He said quietly. Leo nodded again to show he was listening as she spoke about her father. He didn’t understand what consulting was But he was sure it was important if they always had to move. “‘My dad is a handyman, he fixes roofs, floors, builds things. Just does whatever jobs people hire him for. He built a lot of the decks that you see on the houses here.” He said and smiled proudly. Leo smiled at the picture of her friends, he felt lucky that he had been here with his friends and didn’t have to leave. “It’s school.” Leo told Olivia and shrugged. He wasn’t too big on academics, he felt as though he had more important things to focus on, like his writing. “Mr. Smith and Mrs. Abbott are both really nice and chill. Ms. Galvin is okay, sometimes she’s good sometimes she’s not. Mr. Alton and Ms. Klingon are no fun. They’re just mean.” He shuddered as he said that. “The class sizes are normal I guess, it’s just school. Not great not the worst. But it’ll get the job done.” He said chuckling.
