Madelyn was distracted in the morning. She constantly recalled the incident at the safe passage last night and what Forrest said to her.

She did not want to continue imagining things. She thought, 'It's meaningless to ponder about certain things.'

She dreamily got through the first class.

Madelyn, sitting in the first row by the window, heard voices behind her.
