Chapter 121 " He Just Wanted To Scare You
- In the morning, as Rebecca opens her eyes, she is confronted with the loneliness that has become a constant presence in her bed. A feeling of discouragement envelops her as she prepares to face yet another day that seems to repeat endlessly. Although she shares the same space with Alex during the nights, the emotional distance between them seems insurmountable, as if they inhabit parallel universes.
- A year has passed since the devastating loss they both shared. Rebecca decided to dedicate a day in Seattle, visiting the nature reserve that has always been a refuge for her, a place where she feels a connection with her daughter. Meanwhile, Alex remained in Boston, close to the Wealth group, facing his own solitary battles. Upon returning to the city, their interactions became scarce and superficial. Alex would leave for work before Rebecca even woke up and return when she was already immersed in dreams. With each passing day, the feeling that Alex has become a stranger intensifies, filling her days with an increasingly profound loneliness.
- After a tiring day of routine, Rebecca finally gives in to her friends' invitation for a girls' night out and meets them at the lively pub Sullivan's.
