"Yeah, can't bear to part already, makes people envious. It's only been a few days, and they're so affectionate. Doesn't it feel fake?"
A thin layer of anger rose on Lincoln Birch's face, about to say something more, but Keira Leaf interjected first, "Let's just go."
"Okay, Hannah, I'm sorry, it's all because of me that you... that you..." Lincoln Birch looked a bit uneasy, his eyes bright, carrying a touch of guilt as he looked at Keira Leaf.
"It's alright, let's just go." Keira Leaf interrupted with a smile, thinking he probably didn't mean any harm, and it's not his fault.
Lincoln Birch nodded, and the two left the canteen together.
Soon, there was only the bustling noise left behind, and a burning gaze that made Keira Leaf feel prickly, scorchingly burning her.
