She only nodded, and she was about to say something, but apparently, she struggled, and probably, she changed her mind in a second, as she just left quietly. Honestly, I wanted to know what she wanted to tell me, but again, I told myself I should not care.

Everyone looked at her.

“So, this is the reason you are so quiet?”

She lowered her head more. “I’m not a fool.”
