“Maybe she didn’t run away from home, but went out with a purpose? With a lover she had for a long time.”

 

“It’s obvious just from the rumors. She’s so crazy about men.”

 

“I get annoyed every time I hear that rustic southern accent. Why does it sound so barbaric?”

 

Look at these guys. I expected it, but I’m a little bit overwhelmed.

“…Erkl!”

 

“M-My…”

 

They looked blankly at me, shedding crocodile tears.

 

“I, I, I…”

 

“Woo–”

 

“Really, really, I really did nothing, un, I didn’t think I was that bad..”

 

As I burst into tears, covering my face with my hands, they clung to each other in a hurry, not knowing what to do.
