Moderation vs Opulence

A week after the nail salon incident, Keeley was tired from spending the entire morning coaching Alice on what to say during her job interview that afternoon. She wasn't the best at teaching people things but Alice had been a decent pupil. At least she seemed to understand it in the end.

She really hoped Alice got the job she was interviewing for. Then, with the promise of income, she would be able to start renting an apartment of her own. It wasn't that Keeley didn't like having her stay but Aaron had been even clingier than usual since she arrived.

How he had managed to repress his clingy nature in her first life, she would never know. Or maybe it only came out after losing her and getting her back. She wasn't the only one who had been traumatized by what happened.

At least they were now focusing on healing together. That was what mattered.
