Chapter 243: Fuck Normal

"Do you…

…want to?"

"..."

If breaths could sing, then the gasps that were coming out of V's mouth would probably be an entire choir as she…

…waited for Riley's response.

It has only been 2 seconds since she asked the question, but it felt almost like an eternity. She had been in the prison for like 5 months or so, but this single moment felt like it overshadowed it and even lasted longer. Is this what Tempo feels whenever he activates his abilities?

If so, how exactly has he lived so far?

V's eyes perhaps, even more than her fettered breaths, gave away what she was currently feeling right now. She could barely even see Riley in her sights anymore as they trembled uncontrollably– the house, entirely becoming a blur.

Why did she say that? And why was Riley taking too long to respond? Did she… really actually want to experience it with Riley?
