Capítulo 33: Mindful Wellness

[NIKITA]

"Niki, stop. We're here because we care, and we want you to be okay. Tendering your resignation is just proving that you want to run away, but Nikita, how long will you keep running? How long before this shit catches up with you? How long, brother?" Qiao asks, and I scoff at his voice.

He sounds so fragile like he's scared of my reaction. The man has fought for Russia in the military wars and came back home a victor, and now he's scared of what I will say to him. Oh, how emotional attachments ruin us.

However, I don't tell him that because I can tell he truly is worried. The director and Maggie look at me like I need protection from myself, but then we all already know that. I want to lie to them and tell them I'll be okay, but my mind is made up.
