Chapter 237

Lilac's P.O.V I watched the school gates from afar, and almost immediately, lethargy filled my entire body, making me want to collapse right then and there. Lord knew that I didn't want to be here but I had no other choice. The semester was ending and the exams were right around the corner. Within a month, I would be done with school forever and then there would be no looking back, but for now, I willed my tired legs forward, trying to cross the rest of the distance into the hellhole where only the goddess knew what awaited me. I wanted to just go back to the Soup House, sleep and forget about everything that had happened since this morning. Just thinking about facing my fellow students, especially Serena, gave me a headache that didn’t have a cure. At that moment, I desperately wished that I could find Dani. She was the only person who was capable of making me stay sane after what I had endured. Her cheerful personality and her attitude would give me the motivation I needed to go on.
