Arin felt utterly humiliated by the accusations. The villagers quickly realized who was in the wrong, and they began to criticize Arin while apologizing to Nina.
"We're sorry. We didn't understand the situation and almost harmed you."
"Don't take it to heart. You can stay here as long as you like."
"Arin, if you make a mistake, you need to own up to it. Apologize to this lady."
Though they spoke in the Yaren language, Nina could understand most of it.
Arin, however, was not willing to back down. She liked Mr. Micah but had never dared to express her feelings.
Now that everything was out in the open, she couldn't imagine how to face him. Being scolded by so many people made her want to disappear. Apologizing to Nina was the last thing she wanted to do.
Mr. Micah's voice was firm, "Arin, apologize to Nina."
Shaken by his authoritative tone, Arin had no choice but to walk over to Nina with her head down. "I'm sorry. It was my fault. I apologize and hope you can forgive me."
"I hope this doesn't happen again. In these chaotic times, I just want to live peacefully," Nina said calmly.
"Alright," Arin replied, her nails digging into her palms in frustration. She would not forget this humiliation.
That evening, back at her temporary home, Nina finally had her phone charged. She turned it on, but the signal was weak. She couldn't send messages or make calls. She tried moving outside to get a better signal but with no success.
The man of the house noticed her efforts and said, "It's no use. The only signal tower around here was destroyed in an attack and hasn't been fixed yet."
Nina felt a wave of frustration. She had either been in places with no signal or with a dead phone, and now, even in a protected village, there was still no signal.
The man of the house added, "It's best not to go out at night. Recently, the Allied Forces haven't been very friendly toward us. It's relatively safe during the day, but at night, things are uncertain."
The herbs they had were essential for treating wounds and stopping bleeding. With the ongoing conflict, these herbs were in short supply, and he sensed that their village was being watched.
