Many things tangled up in Annabelle's mind, and she felt a mix of emotions: joy at his success, guilt for not being better and for how he was forced to work, anxiety, worry—so many feelings—and finally, pride at what he has achieved.
She became still in that moment, unsure of how to process everything that was happening.
