Lena Irine Delaney knows she can't keep living like this. She can't keep acting like everything's normal when it's not. she might've fooled everyone else, but not herself. If only she could escape... to a quiet place, away from the burden of society. Her shoulders have long since broke from carrying it all; I deserve this.... Is what she thought when she first left. Gone. Left her phone the table and everything. For four years it's been that way for the Delaney household. But 4 years later, 1460 days, 3540 hours, something changed. Both inside and out. Maybe it doesn't have to be quiet. Maybe "With light there is sound. With sound there is life. Sound is needed to confirm many things." #8 in solutions 11/16/24
