Bab 79: ch 78

 Helena sat silently behind Nina who was driving the motorcycle. Since a few minutes ago Helena had been silent, even only speaking when asked.

 Generally, Helena would babble all the time, and would pause for a moment if she was scolded or forced to silence.

 It wasn't bad about Helena's silence this morning, Helena couldn't say anything because she was too happy. It was a good thing, but it felt awkward for Nina who was used to Helena's loud voice.

 Before this, the only thing that could keep Helena silent like this was disappointment. If Helena is silent, that means she is very disappointed or sad, but this time Helena did the opposite.

 Was it because Helena wasn't confident that she would win?

 May be.

 As far as he knew about Helena, the girl always covered everything, including her anxiety and inadequacy.
