Examined (5)

They were about to leave before they realized that they were missing something.

So Bing Lan turned to me and waved her hand for me to follow as she said, "Come on, we can't do anything without you."

I could feel the glares coming at me from the people still sitting at the table, but I ignored it as I went over to where Bing Lan was.

Once I came over, they turned back around and started heading in a certain direction.

Seeing that we were going without them, the ones that were sitting at the table had no choice but to stand up and follow us.

Since we had left before everyone else, there was a bit of a buffer between us and them that I was able to talk to them in private.

I turned to Eliott and said, "Thank you for coming to help."

Though I didn't know what was going on, I did know that he showed up at my moment of need. So at the very least, I should thank him for coming to help me.
