Back at his desk, where he had previously worked on the hunting of Lia, Chase closed his eyes as he tried to calm himself down from the outburst at his mother. He knew he shouldn't be hurling his temper at his mother. And he also knew that he shouldn't let out too much of his emotions, as he had been trying to compress himself in front of his family, not wanting to show how much he actually missed Lia. He is afraid of his father getting to know his true feelings and, in turn, doing the hunting down on Lia and inflicting more pain on her.
But he just cannot control himself... for the past seven years and longer of them trying to pull him and Tifanny together, it gets on his nerves all the time.
And it was the next morning when he woke up abruptly. Only then did he find himself back in the original position of being in front of the desk. He had dozed off while working on finding Lia. And another day has started with no news on Lia.
