114 Overdose

Scarlett’s POV

Well, I don’t have one.

| talked big, but | didn’t really have a “revenge plan” in my mind. Doing people harm is a huge project, and just

thinking about it exhausts me.

“Whatever you want to do, we are here for you,” Aurora says this, only to dart a weird glance at Adrian —

She could only speak for herself and Lilith on that one, but it’s also awkward to specially exclude him from it.

“Yeah!” Adrian pretends he doesn’t understand Aurora's awkward glance, nodding firmly with a genuine tone,

“We are ALL here for you.”

Aurora darts her eyes away, pressing her lips downward as they try to curve up as if having their own minds.

“You are staying withthough, right?” Aurora averts the topic she started, again, “I'm trying to get Lilith to

cand live here, too. Her law firm is twenty minutes walk from her, and we can have pillow fights—"

Just within a minute, Aurora glances at Adrian in pure awkwardness twice with a look like she wants to bite off

her own tongue. She is really not used to having a conversation with an outsider in our little circle.

This tAdrian looks away, clearing his throat to hide his laugh.

“Lilith, are you okay?” | ask. Adrian looks happy just with Aurora’s presence, Aurora is trying her best to give a

pep talk, immersing in her burning speaker soul, and I'm having fun watching it. But among all this, Lilith looks

bewildered as if something is bothering her.

“I-1 don’t know if this is a good tto mention this, or whether | should mention it at all but...” Lilith frowns,

twisting her fingers. She is the

| think because she cfrom a different environn nt fromand Aurora, she has always felt a bit inferior. She

is a straight shooter in the boxing ring, but she can hide a secret like “Sebastian has proposed to Ava” for years.

“Remember the last tyou kept it to yourself?” | remind Lilith, nudging her softly, “It’s us, you can say it.”

Lilith’s look is rarely serious, just like the twhen she finally decided to letin on her secret. But my

reminder works well-

“Scar, | think something doesn’t add up, the way Ava described...about your mom.”

“What do you mean?” | frown.

“It can wait,” Aurora cuts in, rubbing my shoulders comfortingly, “We

don’t have to talk about this now.”

“I'm okay,” | encourage Lilith, and after hesitation, she takes a deep breath and says:

“You said Ava said ‘her face flushed red‘. That's not what an overdoser looks like. My...my mom overdosed, and |

saw her dead body with my own eyes. If Ava said this, then she lied. Your mom might be a drug user, but she

didn’t die using. If-if this can make you feel better.”

| knew her mom died, but I didn’t know it was such a tragic death, and certainly not that she had to watch it

herself. | hug my kind, lovely Lilith, murmuring: “Thanks, that does makefeel better. I'm really sorry for your

loss...”

That DOES makefeel better. To know one good thing about my mom, not even a good thing, per se.

My joking tone put everyone in the room in silence.

“You think you can take it?” Adrian finally breaks it, “You sure?”

I nod at him, firmly.

“Well...” Adrian tilts his head, looking straight into my eyes, “Ava could be lying about the whole thing.”
