The ambulance arrived rather quickly and put Lily on the stretcher before taking her away. The paramedics assumed Shinji was her boyfriend or at least a good friend, so it was safe for him to ride along if he desired. Lily had IVs and monitors into her body, making sure her vitals were stable. The paramedics couldn't quite understand what caused her to faint. As Lily lay there, she slowly opened her eyes. She couldn't quite grasp a clear image of the person beside her, but she seemed to sense it was Shinji. Even with all the commotion and chaos around, she felt an unnerving calmness around him.

She didn't want to be there, and definitely didn't want to tell her issues to a stranger.<br/><br/>"Well, I don't see a reason to live," she explained simply, "I see myself as damaged goods. I have been trying to speak with men again, but I know that I'm just worthless shit and that all I am here for is to be sexual objects to men. No man could ever want me in a romantic sense or as a friend.  I don't want to be alone, but I feel like I'm destined to be alone..."
