A friend in need...

Hearing Rosetta's words, Eve's eyes slightly widened and she turned to look at her friend, and whispered, "Do you have plans to run from here?"

Rosetta cleared her throat, "I thought it had a novelty of its own. Maybe it won't be bad," and her shoulders slumped in disappointment. She said, "I feel like I am trying to gain affections from a wall that doesn't see or hear me." 

Eve wasn't sure if she should feel pity for Rosetta or Eugene. She had noticed the disinterested face on Eugene's face, when he was serving food in the dining room, while Rosetta had 'tried' to look at him subtly. She asked, 

"Did he say anything else apart from rejecting your feelings?"
