Answer: I understand how awkward August feels. Sometimes I get really nervous and quiet around new people.
Explanation:
When we have a personal connection to the character of another person, it means that we can relate to what they feel because we feel somewhat the same.
In saying that she understood how August felt because she gets nervous and quiet around other people, Candice is showing that she has a personal connection to August's character because she goes through the same things he does as well.
I feel 'while' would be the connecting word here. Without it the sentence flops and it helps add onto it with the extra sentence part.

'While' should be the conjunction.
<em>Answer 1 : </em><em>Mami is using the attack of the termites to scare Negi into thinking it was a punishment. This could mean Mami seemed harsh with wanting to scare Negi. Negi would've believed Mami if she said the termites attacked on purpose for her misbehaving. This could mean Negi believed almost everything Mami said and was in fact a bit scared.</em>
<em>Answer 2 : </em><em>I think she includes this story so reader could see what some of her childhood was like. Maybe readers could relate in some way. </em>
<em>Answer 3 : </em><em>I think as a child, she did see the attack as a punishment but now looking back as an adult, she no longer thinks that. Probably because she finds his hard that Mami could have planned the termites attacking but "little her" didn't.</em>
<em>Answer 4 : </em><em>The child might've thought of Mami as a bossy person while the adult remembers her as being funny as times and just trying to take care of her and teach her lessons. Thus saying the termite attack was a punishment. </em>
