She opened her mouth several times, but in the end, only a quiet question escaped her lips: "Are you okay?"
Having already composed herself, Suzy shot her a glance and smiled lightly. "I'm fine. Let's head back."
Jenny originally had her own errands to run, but seeing Suzy like this left her uneasy.
"I'll walk you back then," Jenny offered.
Understanding her concern, Suzy smiled. "I really am fine, don't worry about me. Go take care of your business; I can make it back on my own."
Jenny insisted, "It's fine, I don't have anything urgent anyway. Come on, it's on my way."
Without giving her room to argue, she grabbed Suzy's arm and pulled her along.
Suzy chuckled helplessly, knowing she couldn't win against her stubbornness, and allowed Jenny to walk her back.
They walked in silence for a while until the crowd thinned out. Only then did Jenny voice the question she had been stewing over.
"What's going on with him? It's like he didn't even recognize you," Jenny asked.
