I thought back on the times I had seen Calum angry, the first time we met he was just cold his voice held no emotion, there was when I saved his ass from those Golath demons but he was more mad at himself than anyone else, but there was the time when I snuck out early in the morning and went for a walk, only to come back with Brad, late. Calum had had to walk around before he could get control over his anger.
   "Now that you mention it I do remember one time that he had to take a stroll" I said slowly, Raine and Brad nod silently beside me.

This new person carried weights on has shoulder and pull a tidal wave of anger behind him." Raine stopped to take a breath.

Our mother and father questioned him excessively until he finally cracked and let it all out explaining how he just could not control his anger, our parents entered him into an anger group and personal councillors but no one could find out what triggered his anger. All that the councillors could do for him was to give him tips on what to do instead of lashing out at people. It work, so he quit the counselling..."
