> —Delia Yonce's reaction to suspicion of lying

At the same time, she has indecisive character traits, which manifest themselves in her when she falls in love with her classmate. **Delia Yonce** does not dare to confess her feelings to him, which is why her lover, taking advantage of this, allows himself to play pranks on the girl. to which she never answers.

## Creator's comment

> *When I watched "Omen IV: The Awakening", I liked acting of Asia Molly Vieira, but I didn't like the character herself (her behavior and plot rationale), which was actually the main reason why I wrote this work. That is why Delia Yonce and Delia York are similar to each other only in names (not counting the general anatomical features of course).*
