Chapter 11 Idiot

After getting in the car, Corey put on a cold expression again. 

"I heard that you volunteered to be taken away?"

His mood changed faster than the wind. There was no trace of warmth in his voice.

"They were making a mess in the mall. Since I caused it, I couldn't possibly hide," I replied. After all, I was innocent.

"So you think that you are a responsible person. Do you think you're a hero?" His tone grew even colder; there was even mockery in it.

I mustered up my courage to explain, "I'm not a hero, but they attacked the mall because of me. If I didn't step forward, more people would have been hurt and the mall would have suffered greater losses—"

"Idiot." He interrupted my explanation.

I really couldn't figure out what made me an idiot. Was it because I didn't hide and cower?
