When Evelyn returned home after her celebratory meal with Bylur and Rehni, she immediately went to her room and delved deep into thought.
She was stuck between her fear of experiencing more pain and the natural desire to have companions she could rely on.
Unfortunately, as much as she wished to simply suppress all of her emotions, it was easier said than done.
'I have done so well not getting attached to many others, but – Damn it!'
Slamming her head against the desk in her room, Evelyn tried to calm herself down.
For the most part she approached everyone with an extreme amount of cation and mistrust, but she could feel her barriers being broken down by Bylur and Rehni.
They had been kind to her and even when she was cold to them, they pushed through to get closer to her.
