Huh… and again, that reaction was fair.
Ugly as it was, as gut-wrenching... they couldn't deny that truth.
If anything, it was so very long overdue. Like last time, nobody here was shocked that Layla had snapped like that—more shocked it took her this long.
Of course she'd react like that.
What else was left for her?
It was 'only natural...'
The words didn't need to travel far; everyone in the hall thought them.
Perhaps it was the only time she showed a proper reaction to all of this.
Layla's mind really was twisted as well, huh?
If she could've heard their thoughts, she'd have agreed herself.
Because, even now—or no, now especially—her love was much 'worse;' it had gone beyond reason, past blind devotion, into something far darker.
Safira's obsession no longer had anything on hers.
She really was envious of her past self.
A crushing twist.
