Honestly, I was too shocked to say anything, and I quickly realized that there wasn’t anything for me to say. Apart from perhaps offering Reiner some words of congratulations on his upcoming wedding? I wasn’t so kind-hearted that I could do that when I was suffering so much inside. My head hurts and my chest felt tight. I knew that I could start crying at any moment and I also knew that I didn’t want these people to see it.
“Sorry but I’m not feeling well. Please allow me to excuse myself. Thank you for hosting dinner…” I mumbled awkwardly as I got up from my seat.
