She looked at him for a while, turned around, and said to him with her head lowered:
"No matter what Sakura thinks... Hanabi will always like him and is willing to wait for him. Ten days isn't long, Hanabi has already taken ten days off from school..."
After speaking, she turned and walked away.

She didn't say where she was going,
Purposefully making it so I couldn't inquire about her whereabouts.
Now, thinking carefully... I shouldn't have agreed to her request.
