A quiet place to stay in

Petal got inside the car without saying anything. She didn't have the energy to even use her hands to signal. To avoid listening to his babble early in the morning. She turned off her ear devices and now she can't hear anything. It was quite peaceful, she thought to herself. Do not listen to any voice. Her life became complicated since she started to listen. After all these years. She realized that not being able to listen is a grace that now appreciates. 

Jacob sighed to himself as stared at Petal. He was talking to himself all the time and he didn't notice that she wasn't listening. It's the first time he sees her like this. Not caring about letting her emotions out. She didn't even cry. He admired how she confronted Ethan last night with confidence as if nothing affected her. As much as the situation was painful last night, it showed him how much Petal grew up and changed over the last year.
