She could sense when someone was lying or hiding something. On the other hand, she was constantly bombarded by the thoughts, emotions, and experiences of those around her. It was like having a never-ending stream of consciousness pouring into her mind.

In that moment, Lena knew that her double perception was no longer a burden, but a gift – a key to unlocking the hidden narratives of the world, and the hearts of those around her.

As she grew older, she began to realize that her sensitivity wasn't just about emotions; she could also perceive the world in two distinct ways.
