Ingrid suddenly smiled. She stared at the bracelet, which was half-hidden beneath her sleeve. "Miranda, fancy bumping into you here." Miranda kept silent.

Turning off the tap, she clenched her fists. Her nails dug into her palms, and the pain snapped her back to her senses. She smiled self-depreciatingly as she said, "Oh, yeah? Congrats, then." Then, she left.

Winter was waiting at the restroom's entrance. She waved at Mirandan when the latter cout. "Are you still hungry? Why do you look upset?" Miranda kneaded her temples, feeling tired. "Winter, I want to go home." Winter's eyes widened as she

Miranda paused before asking, "Aren't you afraid of ghosts?"

Although Winter was resolute in her life and career, she was surprisingly afraid of heights and ghosts. She'd even turn pale when they talked about horror movies. "But you aren't afraid of them! I feel very safe with you by my side." Winter giggled.
