Serena had only been back in her room for a short while when she heard a knock at the door.
She ran to answer it, only to have Rosemary kick her right in the stomach.
"Qof."
Serena crashed to the floor, wincing in pain.
"Rosemary, have you lost your mind?"
With the door shut firmly behind her, Rosemary strode over with icy composure, grabbed Serena's collar, and hissed,
"Heard you woke up, huh? Time to settle some scores."
Before Serena could get a word out, Rosemary slapped her in the face.
Caught off guard, Serena was bombarded with slap after slap, feeling dizzy and tasting blood at the corner of her mouth.
Finally, Rosemary kicked her again. Serena felt a familiar sensation, in the exact same spot, prompting an epiphany.
"You... you were the Snow Queen from last night."
She vaguely remembered a Snow Queen kicking her in the stomach with the same force, at the same spot.
There was no mistaking it—it was Rosemary.
