  Celena&#39;s POV
  Recently, the &quot;rash dog&quot; in my body had&nbsp;shown up significantly more often. &nbsp;Especially when Jacob came into my view, it was as restless as a... &nbsp;Well, a dog in heat. &nbsp;It&nbsp;was&nbsp;just like going back to those days when I was deeply attracted by him. &nbsp;
  The difference was that I&nbsp;was&nbsp;trying to gradually let go of things about Brett. &nbsp;
  Brett&#39;s body seemed to have vanished into thin air, with no clue at all. &nbsp;I can only guessed&nbsp;that it was his father, that hunter Carl, who took him away, but there was&nbsp;no evidence at all. &nbsp;And I didn&#39;t want to recall him either, because it would be a nightmare. After all, his face always appeared&nbsp;along with the syringe. 
  Maya and Rose had&nbsp;been spending more time around me lately. They say they&nbsp;were&nbsp;here to keep me company and cheer 

  Celena&#39;s POV
  It seemed&nbsp;that everyone had&nbsp;been acting a bit strange recently. It appeared&nbsp;that they all cared&nbsp;about me very much. &nbsp;Even little Aurora would come running over from time to time, mysteriously sharing her snacks with me. &nbsp;Oh my God, I really didn&#39;t know how to get along with children! &nbsp;I couldn&#39;t share with her my childhood experiences of getting my skin pierced by a syringe or being beaten up, could&nbsp;I? &nbsp;
  So I always politely thanked her and then rummaged through some snacks that I had hidden and which she found novel to share back. &nbsp;
  But we got to know each other better and better. Eventually, I could naturally take the cookies from her chubby hand on my own initiative. &nbsp;She had&nbsp;become a good friend with whom I can share my emotions. &nbsp;For instance, if I felt&nbsp;a bit bored today, she would

  Celena&#39;s POV
  I tossed and turned in bed, my mind a tangled mess. That “dream” felt too real. Finally, gritting my teeth, I decided to call that dress shop again.
  My heart pounded like a drum as I nervously dialed the number.
  “Hello, this is Moonlight Spindle Vintage Dress Shop.” This time, a young girl with a cheerful, lively voice answered.
  It wasn&#39;t her...
  I made some vague excuses, saying I wanted to ask about new arrivals, then hurriedly hung up.
  After hanging up the phone, I felt even more that all that happened in the morning was probably just a strange illusion caused by my hangover. 
  A little while later, Maya and Rose came to see me after their date. Their faces still flushed with happiness, they chattered excitedly about the silly things Jim and Dave had gotten up to. After confirming I was okay, they left, laughing and joking. Judging by their expressio
