In the few minutes that Sam went to make coffee, what exactly happened to Aurora?
Sam didn't know.
But it couldn't have been more than five minutes. Besides taking a short nap, there wasn't much she could have done.
What could cause such a drastic change in someone's demeanor in just five minutes?
Sam couldn't figure it out. It seemed impossible to draw a conclusion.
But he thought of a theory: some people, after doing certain things or entering specific states, become entirely different. It's not about summoning a second personality but rather shedding their facade.
They would remember what happened afterward, but most people are good at pretending otherwise.
Could it be that drinking a lot of mixed alcohol was the specific condition that turned Aurora into this helpless, vulnerable state?
It seemed like a plausible explanation. After all, alcohol does numb the nerves, making it hard to control one's true emotions.
