"Do you have any more questions?" Liz asked, making Serena open her eyes once more.
"No… I think I've asked enough questions for today." Serena mused, flopping down on her back. She gazed up at the white ceiling of her subspace for a moment before she added, "Now I just want to rest…"
But despite saying that, Serena didn't make a move to return to the real world. She didn't feel ready to face it. Not after everything…
She needed time to herself. Time to think over everything. To figure out what she truly wanted.
Serena suddenly felt something heavy on her stomach and lifted her head slightly to see a small kitten laying on her stomach . She lowered her head once more and brought a hand up to stroke Liz's flank, making it purr.
"Liz, how long do you think I can stay here?" Serena suddenly asked as she stared at the white ceiling.
"I guess forever, but eventually you'll need to return to the real world." Liz mused. "You don't have much water… among other things."
