She just felt an overwhelming sense of powerlessness, unable to do the things she wanted to do.
So many things were pressing down on her, making it hard for her to breathe.

"It's not, it has nothing to do with you…"
It took a while, but Elly Campbell finally spoke softly in his embrace.

She reached out and wrapped her arms firmly around Adam Jones's waist, continuing in a low voice:
"Sometimes I wonder when such days will ever come to an end, I feel panicky and a bit lost."
She pursed her lips, feeling that after expressing herself, the stifled emotions in her chest were not as intense.
