Seeing her friend in apparent distress, Diana walked to her and asked, "What's wrong, Antonette?
Antonette was panting heavily. "I feel it's difficult to breathe. And my heart is beating crazily. Maybe I am just too tired these days…" Antonette said between forced coughs.
Kyle could tell Antonette was playing tricks. He slowly walked to her with a disappointed frown.
Diana put her fingers to Antonette's wrist to measure her pulse.
A few seconds later, Diana said in confusion, "Antonette, your pulse is fine. It doesn't seem like there's anything wrong."
The other students burst out laughing. Many of the girls hated Antonette for her feigned innocence.
"Well, what a coincidence. Who does she think she is?"
"Does she think she can lure Kyle like that? What a bitch!"
They continued criticizing Antonette, whose face went very red in response to their comments.
