397 A Trip Down Memory Lane

(Earth Federation- Alpha Star System)

(Planet Gaia- Peterlor Estate)

Everything was just as she remembered. Everything was fine. She was safe with nothing to worry about and yet…

Sophie sat up with a groan and rubbed her temples furiously using her fingers. The familiar sight of her bedroom did little to ease her frustrated mood.

She had tried fruitlessly for several hours to fall asleep but no matter what she did… 

Nothing seemed to work.

Counting sheep?... Nothing. Just closing her eyes… nothing. Doing light exercise and washing her face… nothing.

"I… just… I can't sleep," Sophie muttered hoarsely.

Being a cultivator in the qi tide stage meant that she should be theoretically capable of going without eating or sleeping for months at a time and be perfectly fine.

Perhaps it was due to her Arachnais physiology, but Sophie still felt the urge to rest and eat on a regular basis.
