My gaze roved her frame. There was no blood on her hands or on any part of her body. Though her head was down, her shoulders didn't shake from sobbing.

She shrugged and looked away from me.

And for what felt like years, Sharon's face broke into a big grin. Then she pouted, a slight glare on her brows. "Are you sure? I mean with "
