    The reverse psychology: whenever you try to to talk directly to some people, no matter how loud they tend not hear you (Their excuses would be like: so many noses around, their ears are not as good anymore...) though if you whisper on the cellphone, no matter how low, how far away in the room, as long as they see you, they would hear every word, and they would even testify to their ability to do so if you distract them from their first claim.

    "The worst type of crying wasn't the kind everyone could see--the wailing on street corners, the tearing at clothes. No, the worst kind happened when your soul wept and no matter what you did, there was no way to comfort it. A section withered and became a scar on the part of your soul that survived.
