The day went by quickly, and to Anna's relief, nobody else talked to her about the fight. But just as she was about to head home, someone grabbed her arm from behind. She turned around and saw that it was Oliver.
"Hey, can I talk to you for a second?" he said.
Anna hesitated. She didn't know what he wanted to talk about, and she wasn't sure if she was ready to have another conversation about the fight. But something in Oliver's eyes made her decide to hear him out.
"Okay," she sighed. "What do you want to talk about?"
Oliver led Anna to an empty classroom and closed the door behind them. He seemed nervous, like he didn't know how to start the conversation.
After a moment of silence, Oliver spoke again, "I know I shouldn't be interfering in your business but, I just wanted to see if you're alright. If you ever wanted to talk about anything, you can always talk to me".
Anna felt a wave of gratitude wash over her. She had never expected anyone to stand up for her or offer words of support. It was a kind gesture and it made her feel a little less alone.

Anna pondered her options. She had a choice to make - stay where she was and go home or follow Oliver and talk to him more about her problems
