30. Emiliana

I sit in the car contemplating whether I should go in or not. I'm still shaken and not from the attack. I mean, it'll be a while before I step foot in The Cloud again and I'll always be weary of men I don't know but that's not the reason my body is still trembling. I just can't believe one person can be capable of such violence. I've never seen anything like it. The way Dante just switched off and straight up turned into another person was the most bizarre thing I've ever seen. The man I left back there is not the same person I was with this morning. Or yesterday. His eyes were dark and empty. Zero emotion. I don't even think he realized what he was doing.

For a moment, I even felt bad for the guy. It would have been better if he'd been run over by a truck. At least his body and his face would still be intact. Swallowing down the bile in my throat, I open the door and step out. Rico is there in a flash to help me.
