Sein, who was lounging on the couch with her arms crossed, raised an eyebrow but didn't look surprised. She already knew how this worked. "Get it over with quickly."
Sarah shot her a glare but didn't argue. She stood up, stretching. "Don't take too long."
Lisa's face turned pink, but she nodded bravely. "Okay..."
Andrey stood as well, his expression resigned. "Let's go."
The moment the door closed, the pink barrier shimmered into existence around the room, sealing them in with the usual heart patterns. The outside world became completely silent.
Lisa stood near the bed, fidgeting with the hem of her shirt. Her cheeks were already flushed.
