Elora knew she needed to talk to their parents about Alonzo's education. Even though she was often busy, she always kept an eye on how he was doing in school because she cared deeply about his future. At home, if Alonzo ever misbehaved, the elders would spoil him, avoiding punishment. But when Elora found out, she wouldn't hold back.
