Still, I knew the details because | was directly involved. Finally, | could put weight on my foot and walk. The doctor advisedto exercise more to aid my recovery. On the day of my discharge, Harmony c to my ward. 1 | was somewhat surprised. | thought Harmony would have visited earlier, yet the authorities had closed the case. She removed her sunglasses and looked at me. She said arrogantly, “You look well.” “Thanks to you,” | calmly replied.
| didn’t know when it started, but our conversations had taken on a peculiar tone.

If that had happened, the situation might've been even more dreadful. Even the thought of it sent chills down my spine.
Ultimately, my kindness saved me.
Harmony looked like she had something to hold over me. She appeared relieved and satisfied, saying, Why aren't you answering? You don’t have wishful thinking toward Atlas, do you? It seems you do like him! Her expression lefthelpless. Finally, | couldn't help but laugh.
