*May 2024*

For the next two weeks before the semester ends, Ana leaves the campus for a while when she has enough to go to church whenever she doesn't feel too good without being sick. She had a lot of trouble with her past with depression. She wondered if she had a couple of homework when she was trying to get to the final exam. Earlier, she looked at other people and acted like they wouldn't help her to get the job done.

She enters the church when no one is inside, drops the bag nice and slow, and feels like looking at Jesus when she wants her standard back. Unfortunately, she couldn't get it together while breaking down. After she stopped crying, she looked up at the wall with pieces of artwork, like whenever her life could get a little better.

Ana is leaving the church after spending an hour there. She sees Clara, Roxanne, and Mona, surprised when she doesn't expect it. She blew a whistle with her finger before she sat down on the steps. Clara turned around and saw her, and she decided to go over to her for a minute.

Clara: *sits right next to her and smiles softly*

Ana: Clara? I learned everything.

Clara: Every time you speak very clearly, I tell myself. Like, what in the hell am I supposed to do?

Ana: Mostly, I go to church and pray every Sunday, which seems to indicate that I will be in heaven in the future.

Clara: You are not gonna push yourself away. It doesn't matter. You wouldn't be the idiot that much.

Ana: It just took my last chance to stick together with you and anyone else. I have to fight my own battle.

Clara: I am constantly fighting; I am a real fighter. Whether you see the family yet again, there is nothing to fear.

Ana: *nods*

Clara: Come here. *hugs her*

Ana: *hugs her back while tearing fall*

Mona: There is only one good thing; it's not how you treat badly or even happening. For example, when I went to church, I wouldn't be embarrassed when my body became a soul.

Girls: *hearing*

Mona: I've never gone to church since the last time I was sixteen.

Roxanne: *sucking on the lollipop while hearing a whole conversation*

Clara: Really? Are you eating a lollipop?

Roxanne: I like to taste it.

Girls: *sighs*

Later that night, Clayton drives to the nightclub to get out of the car before he enters it; he goes around looking for Santino when he keeps looking at too many crowds in here while walking all around.

He finds him with Nancy and Moseby when he is spying on them after Dacre gives him advice for one thing: She knows Santino about anything when he lies to his family the whole time. And then, he finally does it until Clayton is finished spying on them. He doesn't storm away; he's walking out of the nightclub normally when he walks over to the car and heads back to Suzanne.

The next day, Jamie is taking a bike around the city. He chills out there for a day until he sees Nancy leave the restaurant alone before the car pulls over quickly while Jamie stands there a little further and stops riding the bike. He sees Suzanne come out of the car alone. When she greets Nancy, she comes for a surprise with the silencer gun and shoots Nancy multiple times. She puts the gun away quickly before heading back into the car until Jamie sees the war for the first time. He's checking out the dead body for a second before he continues riding the bike and gets away from it.

While he's riding faster, he gets a message from Clara that Ana is going to kill herself; he's making his way back to the campus for the next several minutes after he heads out the town earlier. He's running back to the dorm apartment when he runs to the elevator.

Meanwhile, Ana is stuck in the room with Clara while she's got the gun when she is going to shoot herself. Clara is trying to protect her, but Ana won't let go; Jamie enters the room and stands beside Clara.

Ana: The people will tell me that I was lying a whole damn time? That's how I feel?

Clara: Jamie, I tried to call Cameron, but he didn't answer.

Jamie: He's in the session.

Clara: I'm so ashamed.

Jamie: Ana, look at us. This ain't about you.

Ana: Jamie, you'll be OK after all.

Clara: Ana, enough is enough! *takes the gun*

Ana: *hearing*

Clara: It's not funny! OK, you broke my damn heart.

Ana: *hearing and being angry and sad at the same time*

Clara: I know what you are saying: you ain't got that much friendly you wouldn't trust. But I guarantee it, besides their relationship, you can't trust your instincts.

Ana: I wanna leave out of here after school is over.

Jamie: That's far from over for us. As of now, I have to get my place to bounce, teaching my lesson by itself. Cameron loves you. He is careless, maybe.

Ana: *hearing*

Clara: Please don't let your falling down.

Ana: Fine...*quietly*

Jamie: Listen, Clara. I just saw the body right next to the restaurant.

Clara: Wait, what?

Jamie: I watched a whole scene, and that happened. That's crazy. This is why my job needs to hurry up a little faster to make a good idea for development.

Clara and Ana: *nods softly*

Jamie: Let me take a gun. I'll save it up. *grabs it and puts it away*
