ACCEPTANCE.

FRIDAY

'Oh my god...I don't know what to say' I speak in shook. How could anyone be so cruel yet act so casual.? I am in disbelief. This is crazy.

'Yeah, it haunts me every day. I'm cursed with what I know, what I've done. There is no escape.'

'Who else have you told this to?'

'You're the first. The reason I told you this is because I feel like I relate to you. you have done something that you regret.'

'There are a lot of things that I regret but there's only one thing that I feel guilty about.'

  'Tell me about it.' He says as he gets focused. If this man was sent by Thomas, he would have known the thing I am about to tell him. Oh, I wish I could have taken back the things I have done. 'I also served, but in the marine. I was eighteen. After I came back at the age of 28, I had nothing. No family, no money and no home. I started working in a construction site for some money. Out of desperation' I speak. Today, after years, I will tell a total stranger about how insane my life was at one point. The messed-up things I have done, not knowing at the time but that does not mean I was not enjoying it. I enjoyed every last bit of it. What am I supposed to say to that? Franklin was right, something is very similar between us. We both have dark pasts that haunts us. It does not haunt me considering I took pride in the dark things I did. What does that make me? I wish I suffer for the rest of my miserable life with what I know.
