The social club buzzed with activity as card players sought refuge from the raging storm outside. Leonard's jovial jabbing at Bjorn about their recent high-stakes game echoed through the crowded room. Despite the playful banter, Bjorn couldn't shake the guilt weighing on him.
The consequences of their actions had potentially ruined Erna Hardy's life, a fact that gnawed at Bjorn's conscience. While some still held out hope for a fairy tale reunion between Bjorn and Princess Gladys, Bjorn had no intention of ever reconciling with her.
As the storm raged on outside, Bjorn couldn't help but ponder Erna's fate. Would she be able to fulfill her wishes? He sighed, the weight of uncertainty heavy on his shoulders. Meanwhile, Erna braved the elements, determined to reach her destination despite the relentless rain and wind.
Haunted by her father's cruel words and actions, Erna pressed on, her resolve unwavering. She sought refuge in an empty carriage, hidden from prying eyes, until finally arriving at her destination near the old clock tower by the station.
Bjorn's impulsive curiosity leads him to the rain-soaked train station, where he hopes to catch a glimpse of Erna Hardy. Despite his lack of interest in her, he finds himself drawn to her memory as he navigates the empty platform. As he contemplates his own feelings and motivations, he spots a familiar figure struggling with a trunk, reigniting his intrigue and prompting him to confront the ghosts of their shared history.
