After cleaning up. Norah and Alice relaxed on the large bed in the main bedroom and chatted
Norah didn't refuse to share a bed with Alice. Back when she was on a mission, the could easily full asleep, no matter how tough the surroundings were. Plus, she had the best relationship with Alice in the organization, and they frequently shared a bed, looking out for each other
"Alice, what had transpired between you and Riss Norah lay on the pillow, her hands propping up her chin, and glanced sideways at Alice.
Alice leaned against the headboard, her deep blue eyes reflecting an oceanic depth. That day.
The first meeting between Riss and Alice was romantic. When the gunshots rung out. Riss protected the scared Alice and instantly fell in love with her.
I could've walked away, but I hesitated when he grabbed my hand" Alice rewalrd.
Amidst the thundering gunfire and cries of agony, Riss emerged as a hero He took Alice's hand and rescued her from the chaos, like a knight in shining armor. Next came the classic tale of a beauty falling for the hero
"After we're a couple, he treats me really well Whatever I want or ask him to do, he makes sure I'm happy" Alice's eyes shimmered with reminiscence. He's my first love. I used to believe he was my one and only, that we would always be together
Alice's gaze dropped, her fingers interlocked together. "But not long afier, he started making excuses, saying he had to socialize with big shots. One day, I went to find him and saw him in bed with another woman"
She continued in a cold voice, That was only the stars, the attributed this behavior to social engagements. Whenever he went out, he would sleep with other women I cried and argued, but it didn't change anything it felt like he didn't love me at all"
Norah patted Alior's arm to soothe her, listening intently.
“I was disappointed I didn't want to be with him anymore, so I planned my escape. Norah, I kept it from you because I thought I would never see him again. I lied to you. I'm sorry. A single tear escaped Alice's eye as she finished her story.
The endless fights and the absence of love from Riss were too much for Alice, driving her decision to let go.
Norah didn't blame Alice for keeping her past with Riss a secret. Everyone harbored secrets.
"It's your personal business. If you want to share, Im willing to listen to you. If you decide to keep it to yourself and let time deal with it, it's okay. Just bear in mind that I've always had your back. All I want is for you to
be okay, Norah said, hugging Alice. "Our relationship has been tested in life-threatening moments. Trust between us doesn't need words
Even if Norah didn't know the specifics, she wholeheartedly believed in Alice
Norah's embrace was both tender and strong. Resting her head on Norah's shoulder, Alice couldn't hold back her tears. "Norah, it wasn't my intention to keep secrets, but I struggled to find the words"
She kept her failed relationship to herself, never feeling the desire to share
it with anyone The end of her first love left her feeling utterly miserable Back in the base of the Breaker, Alice had talked a lot with Riss about the past and future plans

Alice shed tears, feeling like her throat was stuffed with cotton, making it hard to speak through the tears.
