"I feel much better now," announced Amon, breaking the silence that had settled in the room after a few minutes.
His words seemed to trigger a sigh of relief in Mabel. She lightly tapped her chest, a radiant smile lighting up her face, where a pair of small canines gleamed.
Mabel had total confidence in the efficacy of the antidote prepared by her grandmother, however, anxiety and worry had created a knot of uncertainty in her stomach. Now, seeing Amon's almost instant improvement, this knot unraveled, leaving in its place a sense of joy and relief. The confirmation of the medicine's effectiveness filled Mabel with satisfaction and gratitude.
"That's great," Mabel murmured, her words, although soft, filled the quiet room, reaching the ears of everyone present. There was palpable relief in her voice, the previous anxiety replaced by grateful calm.
