A Desperate Plea

After Lucy fled from the light room, Lara found herself overwhelmed by a mixture of relief and disappointment. Relief washed over her as the blinding light ceased emanating from her, no longer causing harm to Stella, Collins, and Jane. However, disappointment gnawed at her heart as she replayed the image of Collins kissing Lucy in her mind. It was an unexpected betrayal that pierced her deeply.

Unable to bear the weight of the situation, Lara silently walked out of Collins’ room, shutting the door behind her. She had no desire to speak to anyone but her father. With heavy footsteps, she made her way to her own room, seeking solace within its walls.

Once inside, Lara closed the door tightly, shutting herself off from the world outside. She called out to her father, her voice filled with a mixture of desperation and hope. To her surprise, her father heard her plea, and with great joy, he responded to her call.
