Looking at the somewhat dejected Memoria Campbell, Olivia Parker reached out and pulled Connor Lindsay to the outer room.
"In a while, try to ask her... why she's so afraid of spiders!"
"What's the deal with spiders?" Connor Lindsay asked.
"This little girl, she shivers all over even at the sight of a spider web. She says she was bitten, but I think there's more to it. You'll need to ask carefully. I have to find a way to help her overcome this, or else she won't pass the assessment."
Connor Lindsay laughed, "Oh... Olivia, why so concerned?!"
Olivia Parker just gave him a pale look, then in a whimsical tone sang, "Ah, Olivia, you are the sun in my heart. A day without seeing you, my world would be overcast..."
The smile on Connor Lindsay's face turned to helplessness.
"Hey man, can we not bring this up?"
Olivia Parker smiled gently, "Actually, I think, for a third-grade student, that poem is quite well-written."
