“Why are you just standing there?” Alexander asked Ava with a strange look, as if he noticed something unusual.
Ava, who had been standing lost in thought, finally snapped back to reality and started moving from her position. “No, I’m fine. I was just taking a moment to relax,” Ava said, trying to prompt Alexander’s curiosity.“Oh, I see,” Alexander replied flatly, without showing any further interest.The atmosphere became awkward for a moment, and Ava felt a distance between them. She hoped Alexander would ask more, but his simple response made her feel less connected.Ava immediately walked to put away her bag and get a drink, trying not to think about the uncertainty that hung between them. Alexander remained silent, not commenting on anything about Ava, as if nothing was wrong.Though Ava felt puzzled by his indifference, she began to ignore it. She continued her usual activities, trying to forget the tension in the air. Taking a glaDespite her doubts, Ava felt a desire to understand more. “Alright, I will try to trust. But only if I feel safe,” she said firmly.The mysterious person nodded. “That’s a good first step. This afternoon, when you’re free, everything will start to be revealed. Prepare yourself.”Ava was struck by the mystery of their identities, which were entirely beyond her knowledge. To Ava, all of this felt sudden and unexpected, something she couldn’t have predicted.Ava felt turmoil within herself, recalling how her life had suddenly changed. Everything she knew seemed to collapse in an instant. The mysterious person’s identity and the people around him felt far beyond Ava’s understanding.“How could all this happen so suddenly?” she thought, feelings of confusion and helplessness overwhelming her heart. “Before, I was just living a normal life. Now, I’m trapped in a game I don’t understand.”With each passing second, her curiosity deepened. Who wer
"Alright, if you need my help, I will feed you. Because I can’t untie you yet," said the mysterious person firmly. "Why?" Ava asked, feeling curious. "One day you will understand the purpose of our actions. It just takes time to reveal the truth behind all this. I should also emphasize that there is news you might be happy to hear," the mysterious person said, making Ava even more curious. "What is it? What news? Come on, tell me!" Ava urged for clarity.The mysterious person looked at Ava seriously, as if weighing his words. “The good news is, there are others who are also trying to protect you. They are not far from here.”Ava was shocked. “Who are they? Why didn’t I know about this before?” Her voice was full of curiosity and a hint of hope.“They operate in the shadows, just like us. Our mission is to ensure you are safe from the threats that loom over you,” The mysterious person explained. “However, for now, we need to make sure all
Ava felt confused as to why they were talking about her safety, which she herself didn’t fully understand. But she began to think about her issues with Sophia and the people behind her.Ava paused for a moment, reflecting on the words she had just heard. Thoughts of Sophia and the people behind her made her feelings even more tangled."What do they really want from me?" she thought. She tried to remember small details that might have been missed, but everything felt hazy.Ava knew that Sophia was not someone easy to deal with. There was something dark and mysterious behind her enticing smile. Perhaps all of this was connected to the decision Ava had made some time ago, a decision that had trapped her in a game larger than herself.Ava thought that all of this must be related to them. Yet, she still wondered who exactly those supporting her were. What were their interests in this matter? Ava found herself deep in thought that night, trying to analy
The mysterious figure looked at her with doubt. Their expression changed as if considering her request. "Are you really struggling?" they asked, their tone showing a hint of empathy.Ava nodded, trying to appear weak and helpless. "Yes, I just want to eat properly. If you help me, maybe I can be calmer and talk to you."After a few long seconds, the figure finally stepped closer. "Alright, I will help you, but remember, this is an opportunity for us to communicate well," they said while picking up a bowl of food.Ava felt relieved but also cautious. She had to remain careful. "Thank you," she said, trying to show gratitude even though her heart was still racing.Ava thought that there was nothing wrong with eating the food prepared by this unknown person tonight. Although bad things could happen, she felt she had no other choice. The gnawing hunger made her feel weak, and she couldn't bear to feel her body weaken from starvation. She needed energy
"It's alright, it's your right to do so, sweet lady. But you must remember to wait a while here until you can be safe out there!" said the figure in a serious tone. Ava jolted at the figure's words. Her mind immediately drifted to various possibilities. "What does that mean?" She felt there were things she didn't know about everything that was happening. When the figure said she had to wait to be safe, there was an undertone she couldn’t grasp. Was this all part of a larger evil plan?However, Ava tried to push those thoughts away. She was afraid of getting trapped in the mysterious person's mental game, putting her full trust in them only to find it was a trap. She had to remain vigilant and not let herself be ensnared in any lies that might be told.While stifling the pain in her knee, Ava shifted her focus. "I have to get out of here," she thought. Every passing second only strengthened her resolve to escape. She couldn't let fear take control.Ca
Ava continued to struggle to move, even though each movement felt heavy and painful. She had been searching for a glimmer of hope for a long time, but this room seemed like a never-ending maze. Darkness enveloped her, increasing her frustration. The hope that once burned bright was now fading, but she could not give up.She pushed through the fatigue gnawing at her body and tried to focus. "I have to find a way out," she whispered to herself. "I can't let all this effort go to waste." In her mind, she envisioned the possibility of escaping and returning to her normal life, far from this fear.However, as she paused to catch her breath, pain shot through her body. She felt her muscles stiff and weary. In an instant, helplessness washed over her. Her thoughts drifted, imagining what would happen if someone entered this room and captured her again."Don't fail," she thought. "I don't want to feel useless." She recalled everything she had gone through, all the
