I wake up and start to think that everything yesterday was a dream. But the slight headache and necklace assures me that things are going to get better.

346Please respect copyright.PENANAHQI6tkPTsO
346Please respect copyright.PENANA7wJAPQtpks
I open the door with a quiet creak and witness this pristine room. I'm always blown away by how empty this place is. Aside from dolls, a bed, and work-related materials there’s nothing in here.
346Please respect copyright.PENANAffSeQSG5dQ
346Please respect copyright.PENANASOqFCwyY9S
But I have to admit, I bet it’s easier to clean and keep this spotless. And there in the corner desk is Alyson setting her head down on some study papers.
346Please respect copyright.PENANAC9TXStnEKN
346Please respect copyright.PENANAqF3H5wk24o
She must have stayed up all night studying? Why? She’s perfect as is.

I go downstairs where mom and Alyson are waiting. I sit down and begin eating. It’s been so long since we ate together but I can’t fully get into it.

346Please respect copyright.PENANApYPUmb4szh
The food doesn’t taste as good as it should and I can’t look at mom. Mom…she looked so happy to be together for once. But now I can’t enjoy the smile that drew out mine.

Alyson: “Like what? Not much to talk about.”
346Please respect copyright.PENANA91DrBNU13W

Nell: “Anything interesting happening at school?”
346Please respect copyright.PENANAwK4W3ISKm8
346Please respect copyright.PENANAkJPktQOOHF
I flinch from the onslaught of memories while Alyson looks at me.
346Please respect copyright.PENANACfpIsCzPf7
346Please respect copyright.PENANAOk9XB1qwGB
Alyson: “…Not really. I’m still at the top of the school and Nao is still Nao. Nothing changed.”

Nell: “I’m glad you’re doing well at school, you always impress me.”

Alyson: “T-Thanks Nell, I try. Speaking of I need to cut this meal short.”

Nell: “What? Why?”

Alyson scarfed down her food and left us alone in the living room.

346Please respect copyright.PENANAXS26w2zzRR
Nell: “I know you don’t strive to improve like Alyson but I know being super successful is not necessary to be happy. I had faith you would find your own path.”

No, just like with the bullies I refuse to add stress to her. I’ll handle this alone. But maybe one small question won’t hurt.
346Please respect copyright.PENANASxaDvOLXdL
346Please respect copyright.PENANAqHuejFcyeM
Nell: “What?”
346Please respect copyright.PENANAM1CvgooLb0
346Please respect copyright.PENANAyPjNdzq9oo
Nao: “Nothing I…just wonder about this school assignment. Can you help me out?”
346Please respect copyright.PENANASIf3gEVEeB

Nao: “It’s a moral question, is there a good reason to kill someone?”
346Please respect copyright.PENANAqJUBOsJnWo
346Please respect copyright.PENANADnHHcVsYaJ
Nell: “What are they teaching you kids these days? I personally think yes, but very rarely. It up to you to decide when such extreme force is necessary.”
346Please respect copyright.PENANAGikROGZMqX
346Please respect copyright.PENANA4cAqTEEtE5
Nao: “Really?”
346Please respect copyright.PENANAOEoxyzPj6n
346Please respect copyright.PENANAofkLK6Ip33
Nell: “It might sound like I’m not answering the questions but that’s how complex the world is. But I would prefer people didn’t have to kill other people. That’s the world I would like to see.”

That’s all I could take of her warmth. I left back to my room and flopped on the bed.

Nao: “They were trying to kill me. I defended myself, it’s okay. I did nothing wrong. There was no other way.”

Saying that to myself like a lullaby, I slowly drifted off to sleep.
