closed Coincidentally on Halloween PV Linda

Mari notices. It didn't take much to notice when someone simulated balance; it was almost an acquired skill, since she often did it herself. Linda's smile dissipated before it even materialized, and that was enough for Mari to notice that there was something there... something that wasn't going to be said.

But Mari didn't ask. She wasn't that kind of person, and even more so with someone she'd just met. She certainly wasn't easy to trust and, in fact, she didn't expect others to trust her so simply. People kept secrets for a reason. And if Linda chose to remain silent, Mari wouldn't be the one to interrupt .

- Hmm. - she only murmured, turning her gaze to the corridor and the decorations that glowed softly as the class drew ever closer.

She heard a low “thank you” and didn't know exactly what to make of it. It wasn't as if she had made a grand gesture, or expected gratitude. She made a slight movement with her head, nothing more. Something between a nod and a “do what you want”.

- “Do what you think is best,” she said, with a slight movement of her head, as if there was nothing more to say.

It wasn't even half a minute before the lesson officially began. She didn't face Linda directly again, the slight movement of his body away from her was enough to show that the conversation had come to an end.

At the end of the lesson, Mari said goodbye and moved on without looking back. Not out of disdain, but because that's how she did it - she just moved on, concentrating on the things around her, even more so that day.
