Lia instantly shot up, "You found out?"
"Yes!" Nana was proud of herself but having seen Lia being vulnerable just a minute ago, Nana didn't need Lia to praise her. She was happy to be of help.
Lia excited turned to Nana, "What is it?"
Lia didn't even bother asking how Nana found out, what method she used to make Timo's tongue loose and tell her something that should obviously be a secret.
A few minutes later.
Why? Why? Why?
This relentless word captured Lia's mind, her body and her heart. It feasted on her worries, teared her sanity apart and made her run like a maniac.
Forwards.
Only forwards. In the dark hallway, Lia tripped several times, pushing herself forward using the wall but she still couldn't believe what she's heard, what Nana said.
In a frantic daze, Lia rushed down the stairs, through the hallway until she finally stood before the door to the mysterious room.
