Even though everything went smoothly after the restart, I still felt this sense of being adrift, as if... It was as if I had died, and this so-called restart was just a dream, nothing more than a beautiful illusion." The corners of her mouth quirked up slightly as she spoke in a serene tone.
Kallum furrowed his brows. He didn't quite understand what Calista meant. What did she mean by restarting? And what is this beautiful dream she is talking about? "Perhaps this analogy isn't the best, but all you need to remember is this. I might have a masochistic disposition.

"Can you imagine? I actually thought that pain was the only thing that was real. Isn't that thought terrifying?" Although she was smiling, Kallum inexplicably sensed a profound sadness from her. Subconsciously, he pulled her into his arms, furrowing his brows for a while before he finally asked in a very soft voice. "Can I know what exactly you've been through elsewhere?" He had wanted to ask that question a long, long tago, but he never did until that moment. Surprisingly, she replied to him with a smile, asserting that only pain was real.
That made Kallum suddenly realize the pain she had endured when he wasn't around was unimaginably immense! What could possibly be more distressing for her than having a terminal illness?

Kallum was at a loss for words to describe his feelings. He felt a tickle in his throat and managed to croak out, "Is it just because I didn't hurt you that you're being so kind to me?" What on earth had others done to her that was so terrifying? To the point that if someone didn't hurt her, she would think well of them? Kallum couldn't even begin to fathom it! What has gone wrong with my intelligence network? Why can't I obtain any information on her? Calista chuckled lightly, her gaze lingering mysteriously on a certain spot.
