"Lexi, save me. Help me, Lexi. He returns. Back to avenge all of us." Isla crawled, approaching her. Lexi who witnessed it could only be silent and sculpted. Wanting to run, his legs seemed to be glued. Wanting to scream, his mouth seemed to be silenced. Lexi was forced to witness what lay before her. Isla Ginevra seemed to suffer greatly. The beautiful long hair that the woman always boasted looked wet, sticky and smelly. Her pretty face was filled with hollow wounds, giving off foul-smelling blood.

"Lexi, you're my friend, aren't you? Please save me. What happened was not my fault. We did that for you. Your fault. Why do you like geeky men who don't like you. Cheap men are only suitable for cheap and poor women like Olivia. Everything should be done if you can accept that reality. But why are you so greedy and selfish? And now we have to bear your guilt. It hurts, Lexi. This is not fair. Olivia's death was because of you! Steven was punished for you too! You're the one responsible!"

Lexi shook her head, clear crystals pouring from her beautiful beads. His body trembled in fear. Is this really his fault?

"Your life will never calm down, Lexi. Everything will turn and you'll be an unforgiving dessert."

Lexi shook her head, wanting to feel like she was yelling in denial. But instead of denial, his greatest desire is to embrace his friend. Apologizing to Isla if what happened to that woman was because of her actions. Lexi feels sorry to Isla. Isla's right. This is not fair.

"Nobody's gonna make it, Lexi. There won't be. He's so great. Your father, your brother or anyone else is no match."

"If you don't want to suffer, feel tremendous pain. Come here, Lexi, come with me." Isla stretched out her blood-soaked hand, dragging the body ever closer towards Lexi.

"Everything will be fine if you come with me, Lexi. Father, your mother and your two brothers will also suffer."

Lexi stretched out her hand. If joining Isla makes her family live in peace, she will.

A dazzling beam of light suddenly appeared. There were footsteps. Run quickly towards them. Lexi couldn't see who the figure was. A very familiar fragrance.

"Lexy... Lexi's... Lexi, please open your eyes!" The clap on his face made his body flinch.

"NO!!!!" he woke up, reflexively sitting by hugging his knees. "This is not right, this is wrong. Isla was killed, Isla was killed. And I am the cause. Olivia killed herself because of me, Isla was killed because of me too. I deserve to die, I deserve to die, I should die, I...."

"LEXI!!! SOBER UP!!" Darren covers both of his faces. Staring at his sister with worry was also a very deep sadness. Lexi had to endure the mistakes she had made. If only that night had not happened. Had Darren not known that Olivia was raped, Lexi might not have been this miserable.

"Lexi, look at me! You're safe here. You're at home, in your room. What are you saying?"

Darren hugged Lexi tightly as if absorbing all the fear, grief and panic of his beloved sister. Six months have passed, Lexi has not been able to forget the unnatural events that befell Isla. Ginevra's death case is closed. Of all the evidence, 98% show that Isla did kill herself. There is no camouflage in this case as happened in Olivia's death.

"Lexi, relax. Shhh.... Breathe in, exhale." Lexi followed Darren's instructions. Then Lexi felt the air go into her lungs. The tightness in his chest began to disappear. The two sauadara were silent for a moment. Lexi and Darren just hugged in silence. Only their breaths could be heard clashing against each other. Darren's breathing was heavy because it was indeed an emotion that was raging in his heart. Lexi's own breathing is starting to settle. It has completely returned to the present, to the real world.

"What's going on?" his father's voice broke the silence. "Night you have another nightmare?"

"Dad." Lexi releases her embrace from Darren and turns to her father. "It's torturing me. I want to get away from all this. Olivia is always present and now Isla also often comes into my dreams. What do I do to keep them from bothering me? Sleep has become terrible. I don't want to close my eyes again, no."

"Do you believe in Daddy? To us your family, honey?"

Lexi nodded quickly. There was nothing he trusted more in this world than his trust in his family.

"You need to get therapy, honey."

Lexi broke their embrace. His head looked up, looking at his father with a misty bead, "Am I crazy, Dad?"

"No, no, no, you're not crazy. But therapy is the only way we should try to cure you. In one week, you only sleep less than 30 hours, and in such a short time you have to go through terrible things. Forgive us, dear."

Every time he experiences something bad, the word sorry always comes from the mouth of his father and his voice. The regretful look her father gave her was often a big question mark for her. Come on, what he's going through has nothing to do with his dad. At least that's what Lexi believes.

"What medicine is this?" Darren's question caught his attention as well as his father's. "You didn't say you were taking drugs." There was no explanation in the medicine bottle that was inside Darren's grasp making the man's forehead cling.

"It's just a vitamin. My friend gave it to me. His brother is a doctor."

"Doctor? The average best doctor works at Willson Hospital. In our family there is also a doctor who has no doubt of his ability. Tell me your friend's name and the address of his brother whom you call a doctor. I'll check this medicine." Darren's coming out. He and his family were disappointed. Smelling the scent of powder contained in the medicine, Darren felt that something was wrong. Since when did Lexi take the drug?

Sure enough, after doing the examination, the drug that Lexi consumed was a psychedelic drug with the most powerful hallucinatory effect.

Lexi finally admitted that the drug he got through spam ads on his phone. Darren immediately found out who the owner of the number was. Hacked his ID from a link shared to Lexi's phone.

"WTF! The spain? Heh?" Both of his hands clenched tightly as soon as he knew who the culprit was. "It seems the time has come."
