Lesley had been staring at herself in the bathroom mirror for more than a minute now, completely lost in her own thoughts. Her face was still a little wet from washing, and her hands were holding tightly on each side of the sink.

She doesn't understand the emotions building up inside her. She didn't know where it was coming from, but something awful was weighing on her chest.

She should be happy because she and Kieran have made up, and he is reunited with his sister. In addition to that, they are now in the Crimson Clan's safest fortress, away from the threat of MNA, and she can finally see Amanda and Patrick.

But why does it seem like something is missing? She couldn't feel completely happy.

"Ugh... Les, what's wrong with you?" she groaned as she stared at her own reflection in the mirror.

She was fine earlier. But now that she is alone in a quiet room, the noise of her chaotic mind is dominating.

Something doesn't feel right, but she doesn't know what it is.
