Cole's rushed movement immediately made the others snap their eyes open as they wondered what was going on.
"What's wrong?" Linda asked as she opened her eyes to see Cole standing close to Nora.
"I have no idea; I only opened my eyes to see her in such a state," Cole said.
Nora slowly opened her eyes as she tried her best to speak despite finding it difficult.
"Relax, relax, I am fine," she said in a weird cracked voice.
The others were taken aback by the sudden change in Nora's voice and appearance since they didn't have any idea what could have caused it.
"It is just more draining than I thought," she said to them.
Cole raised his eyebrows since he still didn't understand what Nora was talking about.
"You all should first settle down; I can hold on for now," she said in an assertive tone.
Hearing the resoluteness and assurance in her voice, Cole and the others settled down and looked at Nora, awaiting her explanation.
