Chapter 1291 The Final Battle (V)

• Tina was a tough girl—otherwise she could never have clawed her way from a mountain village in Gabrom to Millsborough, step by step, all on her own. She wasn’t someone who fell in love easily, either; people often said she was a little too cold. But today, the second she tapped open that short film, her tears wouldn’t stop.
• Because inside it she saw the girl she used to be—and the stretch of time she once thought was the darkest, only to learn later it was the part she missed most, burned into memory forever.
• With the soft humming of “Who Belongs to Whom” floating underneath, she watched herself: a full-on alt look, heavy makeup, hair blown out like a bomb, face almost unrecognizable, a big guitar on her back, walking down the midnight streets, proud and stubborn as hell. Of course, the “her” on-screen was played by Emily, but Emily carried that chill, aloof vibe herself and worked hard to slip into Tina’s mind back then. The portrayal hit close enough that anyone could say, yeah, that’s got Tina’s old fire.
