After waiting for a moment, Rosie turned to Hendrix and said, "Thank you." Hendrix smiled. "How did you make this? Can you teach me?" "It's super easy!" Rosie immediately got excited. She ran over to Hendrix and started showing him how to fold the paper and draw the design.
On the surface, Hendrix listened attentively, but he never let go of Noelle's hand. Noelle tried to pull away, but it was no use. In the end, she could only give up.

Noelle stood there watching.
Hendrix wrapped an arm around her shoulders. From here, they had the best view of the fireworks.
Noelle knew they had done all of this to cheer her up. And the truth was, Noelle wanted to be happy, too. She even tried to force herself to feel something and summon even the faintest smile. But in the end she couldn't do it.
