Ch 169: A break out [pt2]

‘I am doing the right thing. I need to do this for Bernetta so she does not make a mistake. I know I can do this.’

Thoughts and doubts circled Shizue’s mind as she slowly made her way toward Bernetta’s room. She did not want to drug her lover and force her not to participate in the biggest mistake of her life.

But there seemed to be no other way for Bernetta to learn that she was making a big mistake. Going after the central cord was too big of a risk to take. It had killed so many people already.

“Bernetta, hopefully, you’ll forgive me one day for sure. Until then, I need you to understand my reasoning even if you cannot forgive me.”

Shizue’s heart skipped a beat as she entered the room where Bernetta was getting ready. Her lover knew that Shizue was against her going out but she still respected Shizue enough not to hide things from her.
