Chapter 029
Emilia's POV
Like a never-ending cycle of confusion, the days blend together. The weight of everything I've learnt about Niklas has left my mind disorganised and racing. It gets more difficult for me to distinguish between the man he has become and the person I thought I knew the more I think about him. I make an effort not to think about it, but his secrets loom large over me like a dense mist, and I can't get rid of the thought that I won't ever see him the same way again.
I tell myself that I need time, that I should concentrate on my studies, and that I should temporarily put everything else aside. However, I anticipate seeing him standing in front of me every time I look up; his warm, recognizable smile will restore my sense of security. However, it is no longer there.
