The woman seemed to be a good person, so he overlooked that small but important detail.

At the school exit, Peter's car was already parked. Peter had the window rolled down, waiting to see Ethan come. out. He lazily rested his head against the seat's backrest, staring at the door. He saw little Ethan coming out, bouncing around to get to the exit faster.

"Look, mom, that's Ethan's grandfather!" John said, seeing Ethan hugging his grandfather.
Valerie walked over to the window and, from the distance, could see the back of a man, but couldn't make him out clearly because Ethan was hugging him around the neck. Though both had dark hair, the man seemed tall. Suddenly, Ethan stopped hugging his grandfather and looked toward the school. The little boy stretched his arms to point. As the man turned in the sdirection his grandson was pointing, Valerie saw a familiar face.
At that exact and dreaded moment, the teacher who was supposed to talk to Valerie and John arrived, but all Valerie could think about was that face. She looked again toward the window and saw the sface, the man wearing dark sunglasses that covered his eyes, but it was a face she would never forget.
"Excuse me, Miss, just a moment, I need to go out and take care of something. Can I leave John with you for a minute?" Valerie said, quickly leaving the classroom.
At the school exit, Peter was talking to Ethan, advising him to behave well and wait to go with John and his mother. Fabian would pick him up later.
