her nails, pacing around the garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the day he returned from the trip, she sensed a familiar feeling from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As absurd as it sounded, he gave off the exact feeling that the voice inside her did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...The same ominous feeling she couldn't fathom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wanted to know more, even though the desire to kill
