501 A look into the future

The two girls were carefully watching over Cia as she was lying there in the bed. This was the second time Layla had been in this position, and she couldn't help but feel bad for the girl. As Erin saw this look of discomfort on her face, her heart sank a little.

It made her realize that Layla really cared for Cia, someone who Erin didn't even know that well. Too much time had passed between the two, and if one was to ask her during her time at school if the two were close friends or not, she would have said no.

She didn't know why, but before she had always been this way, not letting others get close to her, but when she was at Pure. She realized what she was missing, a companion. All she started to think about was her time with Layla.

"Do you mind telling me a bit about her?" Erin asked.

She didn't want to be like her old self, cold and pushing others away, and rather than be jealous of Layla's new friend, it was best that she got to know the both of them.
