Tallie and I entered the building and chose a station to work at.
"The area with all the pillows look comfy! Let's go over there." Eri suggested.

"Yeah, alright. Let's go." Tallie agreed.

They placed their belongings on the ground and sat on the pillows.

"Now, let's start."

Minutes into session, Eri feels an intense presence targeted at her. She soon felt uncomfortable, and lost focus.

"Eri? Are you okay?" Tallie noticed Eri's uneasiness.
"...Yeah." Eri replied, hesitantly.

Time passed, and the presence intensified. Eri looked around the room and noticed the girl Silas has been hanging out with recently. She looked Eri dead in the eyes with a bloody look.

"Hey, I'm gonna go to the restroom real quick. I'll be back." Eri said.
"Yeah, okay." Tallie replied.

Eri walked to a private area and she followed.

As she walked, Eri felt her presence following her. Eri stopped slowly turned around and paused for a moment, waiting.

"So." Eri said.

"Is there a reason you keep eyeing me down?" Eri said.

"Yeah. You're a problem." She stated.

"Um, you're gonna have to elaborate on that." Eri said, ironically.

"Listen, I don't have time for your games. I don't know what's going on between you and Silas, but trust me it ends now." She threatened.

"Oh yeah?" Eri said, crossing her arm tilting her head mocking her.

"I don't think you wanna know." She said, intimidatingly.

"Oh, I'm so scared." Eri laughed.

"Laugh all you want now. Just know I'm not the one you wanna mess with." She stepped forward, hissing in Eri's face.

Eri raised her left eyebrow grabbed her arms and pinned her against the wall leaving her defenseless.

"Listen, I've been in trouble all my life, hell, I am trouble. So, I'm able to identify a fraud and the real deal. And honey, you're a fraud. That's all I have to say." Eri said, softly touching her face.

She struggled attempting to break free of Eri's embrace, but failed miserably. Eri laughed hysterically at her efforts. As Eri laughed, she screamed with embarrassment.

Eri got bored and let go. Once she got free, she fled the scene.

Eri went back to the library still filled with giggles. She entered the library and sat down to continue and she started.

"Hey, I'm back!" Eri said.
"Great! Let's continue." Tallie said.

Tallie noticed a change in Eri's mood. She was more bubbly.

"What's got you smiling?" Tallie asked, teasing Eri.

"Oh, nothing." Eri said, smirking.
