Khlea's point of viewI couldn't believe what I heard Allison tell me. I want to cry because I feel sorry for Clifford and Nishane's baby. It was still a baby, but it was taken from them immediately.I felt Allison's hand on my shoulder. I looked at her. Although she gave me a smile, I could see in her eyes the extreme pity she felt for our friend.We were here at headquarters eating when we received bad news from The 8. Silence enveloped the entire dining area.I drank water because I felt like the food I swallowed was stuck in my throat. I took a deep breath."How is Clifford?" I asked."I'm sure he's not okay now. He and Nishane."I didn't answer. I know, as a parent, that what happened was very painful. Even though I never experienced that, I understand the couple very well."Finish what you're eating.""Are you done eating?" I asked while looking at her plate, which was not nearly reduced yet."I'm leaving.""Where are you going?""I'm going to see Clifford.""I'll go with you."

Nishane's Point of ViewI can claim that losing my daughter has affected my life after being without her for a few days. I can no longer even drink water; before, I could consume even a bite of a spoon. I'm unable to eat any more. Even sleeping is now beyond me. I did nothing except watch Aurora Solene's equipment in her room. from beds, chairs, and mattresses to furniture, decorations, appliances, and mosquito nets. This has been my practice for days.I did not enjoy it. Simply put, I am at a loss for what to do now that my daughter has left.I'm back in my daughter's room right now. Never left this place. I no longer even take baths. I no longer fix myself. I can always be found smelling my daughter's clothes in her room. Particularly, her unwashed clothing. Since I can still smell her through it. She still seems to be standing next to me. I still miss her more, though.Because of what I'm doing, Clifford is already finding it difficult to interact with me. He was quite understandin

Khlea's point of viewI was nervous while we were on our way home to headquarters. Allison didn't say anything. I couldn't read any emotion on her face, especially in her eyes.I took a deep breath and looked out the window. I don't know what to say to Allison. I do not know where to start.I'm so annoyed with Candy. I don't know why she said those things. Why did she love me? We weren't that close back then because she always avoided me when I was there with them.I bit the nail on my thumb. There are so many questions in my mind that I can't answer.Allison's car stopped because we were in a bit of traffic. I turned to him.I saw that she took the phone and read something on it. I just feel it. I want to speak and start apologizing for what happened earlier, but I seem to be too weak.I never felt like a coward. My heart is full. I wouldn't be Clifford's ace if I was a coward. But now, I don't know how to start talking to Allison.I'm afraid of rejection or what she might say. I'm a

Khlea's point of viewBecause of what happened, my head hurt. I returned to my place earlier, but Brenda was no longer there. I only took three sips of my remaining drink and noticed that it was empty.I walked to the counter, then ordered a tequila from the bartender. I am disgusted by what happened. Messed up. I really hope Allison pulls through.When Allison entered my mind, I suddenly remembered what Brenda and Candy said about Mira kissing my girlfriend. I'm upset because that shouldn't happen.The only plan is that Allison will attract and befriend Mira. She won't kiss her. I immediately grabbed the small shot glass filled with tequila. I immediately followed by licking the salt off my hand and sipping the lemon. I closed my eyes when I felt the mixed taste as well as the warm feeling that immediately crawled from my throat down to my stomach."Another tequila, please," I said to the bartender, who immediately followed.I was just dumbfounded when I felt someone sitting next to

Khlea's point of viewI cried all night and didn't realize when I fell asleep. Maybe it's because I'm too tired to cry. When I looked at the time on the wall clock, it was eight o'clock in the morning.Because my curtains are dark and thick, no light from the window comes in. I have no intention of acting. I couldn't even go to the bathroom. I'm too lazy to act.I was just stunned by the ceiling. I suddenly remembered the conversation we had with Allison this morning. My heart ached again. I really didn't expect Allison to do that.'Why did she kiss that girl? ''Is she attracted to Mira? 'I tried to put those questions out of my mind.'All that is just show. Allison only did that so she could get the information we needed from Mira.'That should be what I put in my mind, but why am I still in pain? Something comes to mind: maybe Allison did that because that's what she loves and I don't? That she will choose Mira over me?My phone, which was on the nightstand, rang. I took it even t
