Vivian and the others sighed in frustration.
"Cynthia, can you stop making it sound like you're just reciting the lyrics every time?"
She just gave a silly laugh. She wanted to add emotion too, but it seemed like she was simply incapable of doing so. It was as if all the passion and enthusiasm in her life had been drained away, leaving her heart cold and empty, devoid of warmth or heat.
