(DARIAN)
"I wanted to think that there was somebody out there who could love me."
"If you loved me, if you cared for me, you would've stopped that mockery, but you didn't."
The sky is gray, reflecting my dismal mood. As I stroll through the park, Alice's words and her tears haunt me. I believed that if I could get a reaction out of her, if I could get her mask to break in front of me, I would feel better. I would work with that and convince her to forgive me. But her words stripped me raw.
Did I make a mistake back then? Should I have sent her away immediately when I found out the truth? Would that have saved the two of us from endless amounts of heartbreak?
It doesn't matter how much I think about it. Torturing myself won't change anything.
