The type of punctuation that signal the reader that the information is a direct quotation is QUOTATION MARKS.
In English language, quotation marks are normally used to indicate that a particular set of words have been lifted from another source, word for word. This is usually done when a writer does not want to alter a particular sentence that is found at a source. The quotation marks show that the quoted words are original words of another writer.

This short story has a third person limited narration, which makes the readers don't know what is actually happening because they get to know only a little about the characters and their stories. This type of narration creates a surprise at the end of the story because the readers don't have all the perspectives in the story and they get surprised when they find out that things weren't as they thought they were. They didn't have all the information and perspectives from the characters.
