Chapter 185 - Worth the Effort

Point-of-View: Katie Cummins 

———————————————————————————

I let out a huge sigh as I shut the door, leaning back against it as I sunk down onto the floor, feeling worn out. My face is really sore, just opening my mouth hurts...that took so much effort! 

Kilzachs had just walked me home from the amusement park, and now that I was back, I could finally relax...I'm completely exhausted. Still, it definitely seemed like my efforts were worth it, based on his reactions throughout the day. 

I kinda feel bad about it, but I'd have felt a lot worse if the date went poorly because of my lack of expression. Yesterday, I'd worked all day with my inner AI thing to get the hang of manipulating my facial expressions to match my emotions.
