"Snap!"
With a heavy sound, the ancient tome in Tiya's hand fell to the ground.
Beside her, the young nun who had been organizing bookshelves with her let out a light chuckle.
"Oh dear, what's wrong with our Holy Lady today? She seems so distracted, even unable to hold onto a book properly... Giggles, could it be that she's yearning for a man?"
Despite always having a compassionate and tender appearance in front of others, she was still a girl inexperienced in worldly affairs.
Some words, although they broke the clergy's code of conduct, could be said in private without getting reprimanded by the nun mothers.
Moreover, as one of Tiya's few friends, the young nun was very concerned about her doll-like, untouchable demeanor.
Therefore, she would often say such outrageous things in hopes of stirring Tiya's emotions, wishing to awaken the humane side of her through such remarks.
It wasn't her overthinking.
