Amethyst knew it wouldn't be good if she went to her family's house, but it still wasn't enough for her not to go. After all, there is someone she needs to protect. Amethyst stood outside her family's house, the weight of her recent discharge from the hospital heavy on her shoulders. She just got out of the hospital, but here she is now, in front of her family's house. It is certain that if she enters the hospital again, it will not be a normal hospital but a mental hospital because of what her family is doing. She took a deep breath, trying to steady herself before stepping through the door. She needs to calm herself because if she doesn't, she will definitely do something bad. The familiar scent of the house hit her like a wave, bringing with it memories of countless arguments and disappointments. This place still hasn't changed anything.

It had been two days since he had remained idle. She didn't resign, but why doesn't she have a job? Amethyst sighed.

She sighed again, rolling over and burying her face in the pillow. What should he do? She wants to work; she will go crazy if she doesn't act. The days since she left her family's house had been uneventful, and she found herself struggling to fill the hours.She had tried cooking, filling the apartment with the warm, comforting smells of homemade meals, but even that had grown tedious.
