Will and Callum sit in the exact same seats as before, in the exact same environment and surroundings. Except this time their mom is okay. She's getting a check up in the same room as last time they were here, but she is okay.

Riley coincidentally emerges from another room down the hall, a few small stitches on her forehead.

She must of hit it again, Will thinks.

She waves politely as she walks passed them, being stopped in her tracks however, when Callum speaks.

"What happened to Talia? You never finished her story."

Riley stands in the same spot for a few moments, her body tense and rigid, before she reluctantly shuffles towards them and sinks into the seat beside Callum, a hesitant look on her face.

After awhile of debating with herself, a war going on in her head, she comes up with suitable ending.

"The monster was controlling her, but Talia managed to free herself. She got her wish in the end, plunging into the ice cold water, feeling it against her skin as it consumed her body.. She got what she wanted."

Riley gulps, standing from her chair to leave.

"The end."
