Visiting Vivian’s dreams once again.

Coming back to the Labyrinth is a weird experience. While awake, you have no memory of this place, but here, you can remember all your actions and intentions. It’s like you’re working behind your own back to make your wishes a reality, and your awake self knows nothing about it.

Well, it’s time to get back to work. You consider going to Ms. Norah’s dream now, but the fact that you have to tutor Vivian tomorrow and that you already started with her makes you decide otherwise. Trying to spread your efforts will be worse in the long run, you think. Besides, hanging out with Vivian might give you a better insight into her mother. The fact that she agreed to you tutoring her, even though she remembers her dream about you, means you’re on the right track.

You concentrate on the beautiful redhead and her door slides in front of you. You breathe in deeply once to mentally prepare and go inside.

You’re glad to find yourself in a shopping mall but are not about to cry victory just yet. The atmosphere of this dream seems calm enough, but you wouldn’t call it joyful either. It’s as if it stands on a fine line of insecurity, and anything could push the dream towards a nightmare or a nice dream. With those possibilities in mind, you set out to find Vivian.

It takes longer than usual, but it’s still easy enough. The surroundings become more detailed as you get closer. Most shops don’t have names, but the products they sell are more defined the closer you are to Vivian.

You find the redhead sitting on a bench, alone. She’s just… sitting there, doing nothing. She occasionally looks around, as if looking for someone. You wonder if she’s waiting for someone or afraid to be found by someone.
