Annette said, "Let's leave through the west gate."
Sara listened to her and sent her to the west gate.
They hailed a taxi.
Annette told the driver the address.
Sara frowned and asked, "Aren't you going to Connor's place?"
Annette did not say a word.
Sara said, "Annette, though I haven't been in a relationship, I think that if there is any misunderstanding between a couple, it is better to talk about it. Do you think so?"
Annette shook her head and turned to look outside the car window.
Sara sighed and could not say anything else.
Not long after, they arrived at the apartment building, and Sara followed Annette home.
Annette sat on the sofa and said to Sara, "Sara, thanks for taking me home. I'll be fine by myself."
"But..."
"I might not be able to go back to work in the next few days. Please help me ask for another leave."
Sara walked to Annette and sat down. She asked, "Annette, are you really OK?"
