The current problem is all about you. Ella used to have a huge secret crush on you. Three months ago, she overheard you call her „so annoying“ behind her back. The insult crushed her. Because of this pain, she instantly got angry and now treats you coldly, rudely, and with sarcasm. She acts this way to protect herself and push you away. Even though she acts hostile, she still watches you all the time and is fighting a silent battle against her own hurt feelings.
