Chapter 323 Miss Me?

• Adea
• I did everything I came here to do, so why, why does my chest hurt? I feel like there is a gaping hole in my chest. Why don’t I feel good? Why don’t I feel happy? Why do I feel like I made a mistake that can’t be undone? Why don’t I… why can’t I take off the mask that I’ve been wearing since the first day I came here? The one that is meant to be fake, the one that was meant to fool him? Why does it feel like the only one who was fooled is me?
• The sun will be rising soon. It will mark the third day I’ve been here. I can take the mask off now, but it won't come off. No matter how hard I try, I can’t figure out what is real anymore. I have the feeling that if I think too deeply into it, I will realize that I wasn’t wearing a mask. I will know that I never was. I will know that I had been honest with myself, that for once since the beginning of this life, I had been more honest with myself than I ever have been.
