Few more days passed. Lisa recovered from the fever and started going to her works. During these days she hardly encountered Carl Black, despite living in the same house. Whenever they crossed their path they just looked at each other for a few moments and went back to their respective works without a word. Such a life is suffocating.
Lisa wanted to clear the misunderstanding but whenever she encountered him, after seeing his cold dark eyes, she couldn't gather her courage to speak. The same was with Carl Black also.
