'I need to get away. I want to be alone.'
Teressa ran as far as she could until she was sure she was alone. But even that was not enough. She wanted to curl into a ball and disappear somewhere no one would ever be able to find her again.
Being alone helped calm her nerves, and after spending some time by herself, she decided to head back.
She was not in the mood to deal with other humans, but unfortunately, they noticed her presence and called out to her.
"Teressa, where were you? Do you want to come with us and check out this new stuff we made?"
A familiar-looking team asked her with bright smiles on their faces, and Teressa found it hard to refuse them. So she smiled back and replied with just as much enthusiasm.
"Sure. Just give me a minute and I will be there with you."
She promised, faking a smile as she followed the group afterward.
Her heart skipped a beat when she noticed Shelly in the same area as her, and she wondered if Shelly would attack her again.
