Badmouthed

Kimmy had been gloomy ever since she returned after sending the documents to the Admin office. She was sulking inside Cain's office, not wanting to leave or go out again.

She was unusually quiet with her downcast expression. Cain had been secretly observing her for a while now. He was bothered by her actions. 

He wondered what made her upset. Her mood suddenly changed upon coming back to his office.

'What happened to her?'

When he could no longer stand it, Cain stood up and approached Kimmy at her table.

"Kimberly, is there something wrong?" Cain asked her softly. There was a worried look in his eyes.

Kimmy gazed up and looked at him. Her expression became sad upon seeing his face. She felt like crying but she tried to hold it in.

"Yes, everything is fine. Do you need something, Cain?" Kimmy responded, concealing her negative emotions with a faint smile.
