บท 1544: Katie's Situation

Katie slowly got up from the ground, the blanket still wrapped around her. She looked toward Ning and then wiped her tears.

"Why did you do it, Katie?" Ning asked.

"Because I wanted to forget," she said. "The few hours this thing works, it lets me forget."

Ning was taken aback. "What do you want to forget, Katie?" he asked.

"My life. My situation. Everything. I want to forget everything," she said. "It's much better than the other solutions my mind comes up with."

Ning settled down next to her and sighed. "Do you have friends?" he asked.

"A few, but I left them once I joined the military," she said softly.

"And you didn't make any in the Military?" he asked.

"I was pushed up to an Officer just days after I joined. I didn't have the chance to make any people," she said.
