In Wonderland, death was not a heavy subject.
The day of death was treated as a concept similar to a birthday, and discussing death was a common topic that arose when conversations dwindled.
Solana's attitude, smiling as she talked about her child's death, was enough to make the living feel uncomfortable.
But Reyna had already been to Wonderland and even watched "The Moment of Death Impersonation Contest."
It wasn't something else that shook her. It was what she said.
She couldn't understand her mother's words.
I died?
She shook her head.
That's ridiculous.
Refuting that was simple.
Just take off the mask.
But she couldn't.
She was afraid her mom wouldn't recognize her.
No, she was afraid her mom might say something more than that.
As she hesitated, little Reyna, who had been silently watching, chimed in.
"Are you talking about back then? Mom, that was so bad!"
