Laura's serene countenance remained unfazed, her voice carrying a soft observation, "Your face is red." Her gaze remained fixed ahead.

Anna clenched her jaw, her gaze veering off to the side. Her features shifted, transitioning into a shy and bashful demeanor, her eyes tracing the figure of Ethan.
