The driver glances at the rearview mirror. The woman is staring out of the window, looking lost. She hasn't said a word.
"Where do you want to go, Miss?"
Where should she go? She doesn't want to go back to the hotel. Getting kicked out after two days is just… Wakana sighs, watching the lively city passing by her with an unfocused gaze. It's not the first time when someone told her that she didn't have what it takes to do the job. Her family told her the same. Her colleagues in the violent crime division also doubted her. Sei wasn't any different.
She just didn't expect him to say that. She was excited that he was here. He was finally in front of her. Even if he didn't want to admit that it was him, she was looking forward to working with him. For the first time, she accepted herself. She wanted to make use of her ability.
Her heart becomes heavy. She turns on her phone, wondering if she should call Sei.
