Nina and Helena were in Helena's room. At the same time, Alan and Bastian talked for a while in front of the minimarket.
Helena did not say anything to Nina. They did not discuss anything about Bastian or why the man was in front of their boarding house. They just sat on the bed in silence. Nina oversaw Helena without any intention or eagerness to ask.
Nina didn't force Helena to talk about what had just happened, and she just waited for Helena to tell her own story. Because sometimes, she did not tell everything directly to Helena about what happened, but Helena never brought up or forced her to tell stories. Finally, when each felt the time was right, they would know by themselves without being asked.
After all, forcing others to tell stories when they are not in a position to tell stories is not very good except in some threatening ways.
