"You have come this far but you shall go no farther! I am commanding you to please leave! You do not scare me anymore, and it is time for you to go! Leave Lia!"

I was somewhat happy and somewhat disapointed that I had no response, yet I still felt proud for myself.

After I was satisfied with yellijng at the white wall of the coroner, I left, deciding I was going to move on in my life.
