I get the feeling this is supposed to symbolize something, but...

I can't help but find this both confusing and funny...

I'm not right...

Y/N POV

Kai...

Tomura...

Then...

Everything going on with the media...

I look up at the ceiling, holding my hands together like I'm praying.

Lee, please...tell me what should do...

I close my eyes.

Flashback

"...Lee..."

"What is it, sweet pea?" Lee asks, looking down at me.

"What should you do if everyone turns against you?" I ask.

Lee thinks for a moment. He then whispers,
"I'm not sure...I suppose...it's not me you should be asking...it's not my level of expertise..."

I look down at the ground.

"Then...Who should I ask?" I ask.

Lee pats my head and gives me a confident smile,
"I believe, deep down, you know who..."

End of Flashback

Who...?

It then hits me.

Mama...

Flashback

"Little one..."

I look up at Mama.

"...Promise me...Promise me to always look at every side of a story...look for the truth...even if it's the darkest truth to exist...Look for it. Know it. Look at everyone's perspective. And then...decide where you stand. Sort everything you know. It's important to always look at everyone's side of the story."

End of Flashback

I think back to the look in her eyes as she told me the promise.

Her eyes...they had pain and desperation in them...like...she'd before faced the injustice of jumping to conclusions and...not looking...listening to every side of the story...

But...

What was it, Mama?

Flashback

"Did you know...that every female on my side of this f##ked up family...have been accused of being evil..."

I look up from my book on Black Magic.
