A man placed hot tea on the table right in front of Sofia. Since then not a single word came out of the woman's lips. He just sat quietly on the sofa bench in Secretary Aris' room.
"Drink!" said Secretary Aris. The man seemed confused about where to start if Sofia asked about what Hana had just said to the woman.
Secretary Aris promised himself. After this, he would definitely make calculations on Hana.
"I'm not thirsty!" Sofia answered after a moment of silence. Dropped a blank stare at Secretary Aris. The woman looked very shocked.
"Tell me, is what Hana just said true?" Sofia whispered in a tone so low that Secretary Aris, who was sitting at the end of the sofa, almost didn't hear it. The woman's gaze was so very sad.
"What did that woman say to you?" Secretary Aris replied in a relaxed tone even though he had actually heard. One hand reached for the coffee cup that was on the table and took a deep sip of the caffeinated drink.
