Chapter 191 Audrey
The cool night air was refreshing against my skin as I hurried down the street to Avis's apartment. Finally, for the first time in two weeks, I felt as if Iuld breathe.
Blissfully, I could see a light on in Avis's window. So she was awake after all. When I reached her door, I hesitated for a moment before knocking softly. Avis opened the door a few moments later, mousey blonde hair pulled back into a messy bun and wearing her pajamas. Her eyes widened in surprise when she saw me standing there. "Audrey? What are you doing here so late?"
"Hey," I said, suddenly feeling a bit sheepish. "I was wondering if I could hang out for a bit. Is that okay?"
Avis nodded, stepping aside to let me in. "Of course. I'm just working on some tailoring orders for clients. You're welcome to keep me company."
I followed her into the small living room, which was currently overtaken by fabric swatches and half-finished garments. Avis cleared a space for me on the couch, and I sat down, watching as she returned to her work.
'So," Avis said, threading a needle, "what brings you here at this hour? Everything okay with Edwin?"
I sighed, unsure of where to even start. "It's... complicated," I finally said.
Avis raised an eyebrow. "Complicated?"
I nodded, then launched into the story of what had happened at the museum and the subsequent weeks of Edwin's paranoia. My friends had had suspicions that something was going on, but I hadn't gone into this much detail. As I spoke, I found myself helping Avis with her work, pinning fabric and sorting buttons-anything to keep my hands. busy.
When I finished explaining. Avis was quiet for a moment. "It sounds like he's just trying to protect you," she finally said.
"I know," I said, sighing again. "I understand that he's scared for me. We've been through a lot. And if I'm being honest, it's not even really him that's the issue. It's all of this... Silver Star nonsense." Avis set down her work, giving me her full attention. "What do you mean?"

"Now you wish you were ordinary again?" Avis asked softly.
