Admittedly, I just got the idea and started writing, but in the context of this being something that neither she nor MC is ready to face, it would make sense. People can have feelings that aren't justified, and Lacey would certainly know that she's not justified after all that MC did for her. Similar to Lacey's fantasy of 3 weeks with Ketamine and MC. She definitely doesn't want Ketamine anymore, but it's still something inside her.I don't think this line makes much sense.
There is no indication of it anywhere, quite the opposite, in the same other side dialogue Lacey mentions that even if she din't love Mc anymore she would never be able to repay the debt and would stay with him.
It would have made sense if the opposite happebned, MC blaming himself for not having been ablle to do more, which is obviously nonsensicall considered the ages we are talking about.
But that fits way more, feelling powerless to save what you want to save the most and than being left behind ccause of it (it is not what happens but a possible perception of it)
The following is her explaining why she abandoned MC
L "You had to know how much you meant to me."
L "But I was a very broken teenage girl."
L "Every time I thought of kissing you or any kind of intimacy with you,"
L "all of my pain and suffering would cloud my mind."
L "I would see my mother's cold cruelty."
L "I would see my father's physical and sexual abuse."
L "I couldn't just see 'you'."
L "The only thing I wanted to see."
L "Intimacy made me sick all the way down to my core."
L "I had to find a way to overcome that so I could love you."
L "I thought if I learned to stand up on my own that I could learn and grow."
She doesn't mention or hint in this that she resents/hates MC with abuse currently, but she does mention that she saw abuse anytime she even thought of any kind of intimacy with him. I imagine that'd leave scars for a girl if her mind replays her getting sexually and physically abused anytime she thinks about being intimate with her boyfriend.
I will mention that I have other ideas that I had posted already, but this is the one I'm liking if we don't get any further details or reasonings behind the 1460 days.
(P.S. she does still not text MC after Anna's phone call after she discovered the reset. For whatever reason, she still only contacts MC after he gets his first job. I'd like to think that this means there was some form of blackmail or manipulation that would explain/excuse these actions, but who knows. Hopefully, we will find out in Act 3!)
