This young lady looked too serious for them to comment and for a second they could see the many many emotions that small arc on her lips contained... Maybe because she has been holding onto their secrets and controlling their moves from the first day they met, that they became wary of her or, maybe because of her habit of talking to others as an equal that they forgot her real age, but they couldn't help but wonder why a young lady like her seemed to have far more life experience than them and looked so mature at this moment.
