章節 200: Guilty

"Big Sis?" Alice asked again after receiving no response.

"I'm really sorry, Alice, but I can't remember anything at all." Alyssa admitted, shaking her head.

She had made an effort to recall, wracking her brain, but there was simply no trace of that place in her memory. It was as if the location had never existed, or as though it had been entirely wiped from her mind.

"Are you sure?" Alice asked.

"I'm sure," Alyssa replied.

"I see. It's okay if you can't remember. I'll find another way to figure it out," Alice said, forcing a smile. She felt disappointed, but she couldn't really blame her sister for not remembering.

She took another sip of her tea to soothe her emotions and then steered the conversation towards lighter topics while chatting with Alyssa. She shared stories about her school experiences, including how a teacher had come to her rescue.
