Or maybe she does.

Everyone picks on the April storyline in "City at War", but for my money, I always really found it interesting. She WANTS to be normal, but now that she's out of it, she realizes she wants back into it.

To be fair, she was in LA, and from how the place was portrayed in that exact comic book, seem very superficial and was literally the worst place for her try to "find herself". All of the little things that would have matter just didn't anymore in comparison to her old life

I don't really get the impression she miss the turtles. Splinter definitely, but the way it look to me was more like how someone got back from Vietnam but they can't seem connect with their friends and family because they have all these experiences that makes them feel alienated and disconnected to the here and now.

She honestly just couldn't move forward so she went back to the only world she knows.

And then she started dating Casey.
