Chapter 2

Seven years ago, I had already been admitted to the National Confidential Science Research Institute.

But before I could decide whether I’d go or not, my parents

sent me to prison.

During those seven years in prison, I came to understand everything. So, before I was released, I reapplied for the institute’s position.

I received a reply shortly after I sent the email.

“Ten days later, on December 10th, a special car will pick you up at 9 p.m. sharp.”

Ten days…

I closed my eyes again.

I was so glad. All I had to do was endure ten more days; then I could leave this place where no one loved me for good.

The next morning, I was awakened by the commotion from the living room.

Groggily, I opened my eyes, washed up, and walked out of my

room.

Kyla came back and was in the living room.

She sat on the sofa in a white dress, like a princess.
