Anxious People の小説・ストーリー

“A-aiden, there’s a lot of people.” I move closer to him, suddenly feeling quite uncomfortable in the midst of all these people who look like they are from a very high society. Everywhere I turn I see elegantly dressed individuals with expensive-looking jewelry and confident mannerisms. They have an aura of power and influence around them that makes me feel insecure and small. It's clear that we don't belong here among these elite individuals, and my anxiety grows as I wonder if we will somehow be exposed as frauds.

“Eat, B. Everyone is worried sick about their loved ones, but what comes out of anxiety?” I stare at her. “Let's just ease off and trust they'll be back. They always return back.”

Then he said, “You were anxious before now. Want to tell me what’s going on?” I turned my head to look at him, pondering on the question. Was I so easy to read? How did he notice that I was anxious? “It’s nothing,” I shook my head. “I just don’t know how people are going to react over what happened at the center. Who knows what they’ll say if they find out about Harper’s arrest. I’ll officially be labeled Northvale’s villain.”

For her health? Tanya’s smile turned patronizing. “You know how people worry. Especially with so much at stake.” April leaned forward slightly, her voice dropping to a velvet purr. “Funny. The only ones who seem worried are the ones who don’t belong here.” Tanya’s mouth tightened.

One of them spoke up again. Every face was pale, the eyeballs quivering with anxiety, the fear and despair hidden in every heart for this calamity that had befallen them. Whether this will be the end of their life sustainability as well as their work career. Each of them seems ready to resign if they become unemployed layoffs from the bankruptcy of this company.

I announced solemnly, noting the anxious tension among the crowd. The residents listened intently, their expressions fraught with concern. Some were on the verge of tears, fearing the worst for their loved ones. They braced themselves for news of casualties, praying fervently for the safety of those dear to them. "As for the knights..." I paused, sensing the palpable fear among the residents. A mother's plea pierced the air, followed by the heartfelt concerns of spouses and loved ones. But before their anxieties could escalate further, I reassured them with a chuckle. "Everyone is fine."

Saphria's wraps her arms around herself as she speaks as if to comfort herself. Uncertain as to what to do next we just stand there looking at each other for what seemed the longest time. Then as our anxiety was hitting it's peak a phone rings over in the corner, we all jump at the sound of it. We are freaking ourselves out at this point over nothing and stare at it like it's some alien coming to probe us. "Are you going to answer it?" I ask timidly to the other two, I'm sure as hell not going to do it.

His posture is rigid, his shoulders tense, his hands fisted, his face in a frown and there's a slight tremor in his jaw, as if he's clenching and unclenching. "It's the people," Elliot replies even though I haven't asked a question. I guess it's obvious what I want to know, "It's not you. It's... they make me anxious. There are a lot of people here and they want to talk to me, I'm not comfortable."

It rapidly grew. The annoying siren of red lights and honking horns and the loud, chaotic conversation of these people joined the situation. "Lance! Push the button now!" "Alexis, help me close the doors!" "Elaine! Go with Aniela to shut down all the programmed machines we had in this facility that were functioning!" "No! No! No! We need to move out!" These people were panicking as they tried to control the situation, but they cannot. One person with a pimpled face even reached out the buttons to use the programmed machines they had, but it failed. I guessed these people have no idea that things will turn out this way.

I yelled in frustration , touching my temple which has become so sweaty due to fear and anxiety I felt earlier. "Até, it's about Até Alex, I think she is in trouble and she is trying very hard to keep it from us ,I think , we have to do something about it , before it's get messier and the problem is she is not willing to share whatever the problem is with anyone,or did she tell you anything? , I explained keenly without a moment of interruption.
