Your POV:

I asked the red paladin if he's talking about my mother.

"Ummm... I don't know what she looks like... Sorry, I just heard about her from Allura." the paladin said as he put a hand behind his back and looked a bit troubled since he looked like he didn't know what my mother looked like. I just nodded my head. 

What the hell Y/n?! Why are you letting your guard down and letting this Paladin comfort you?! Just because you somewhat tried to kill them doesn't mean that you can be buddy-buddy... You can't trust him, Y/n! He's the one that made me kill Silas with my bare hands as the poor little boy was struggling to get out of my grip....

As I was thinking that I felt goosebumps crawling up from my legs to my arms. I shuttered at the memory of that as I couldn't believe that he especially made me kill the poor Blameran boy, Silas.

Then again he said that Silas was alive... How can that be when I clearly remember killing the boy with my bare hands... Could he be telling the truth? He did help me calm down just now... so maybe he could be telling the truth... Could I trust him? No! That's not enough evidence! Just because he said it, doesn't mean it can be true. That's what father told me.

Just as I was trying to remember that incident again images flashed in my head all too quickly and this time my head was pounding and starting to hurt again. I felt like someone was hitting my head with a rusty hammer.

"Ahhh!" I yelled as I held my head and just as I did, I felt warm hands holding me up. I looked up with the strength that I had at the moment to see that the paladin was looking at me worriedly? I was about to retract my arms away from him since I didn't completely trust him as I trusted my parents more about who he really is. But just then I couldn't fully pull away from him since I was focused on the pain more as the pain aggressively became worse.

"Hey! Are you okay?" the paladin asked in his deep but not too deep, soothing voice. Just as he said that I saw images different images of what happened that day. The images that I was seeing in my head were glitching with each other as one showed that I saved Silas as the red paladin was holding me as he was looking down on me but the other image would show me choking the small boy. As I heard the grunts from the little boy trying to grasp for air as well as the Red paladin yelling over me telling me to kill the little boy. 

"*Grunts* " I try my best not to scream as I clenched my jaw so hard I felt like my teeth would break. I gripped my hair while pulling it harshly away from my head to bring in new pain to substitute the current pain but it wasn't working. I think the paladin was talking to me but I couldn't hear him since he sounded muffle as my ears were now ringing. As the images were constantly glitching back and forth I felt a whole new pain that I never knew that it existed. All of a sudden I felt the sharpest pain like a sharp knife trying to break through my skull from my temples as I screamed as I no longer can hold in the pain.

Just then the images were all cleared up now I no longer see my memories fighting with each other anymore. It was just one memory now as the other memory lost the battle in my head. I was breathing heavily now as I felt beads of sweat dripping down my face. I slowly clenched my hands feeling a certain type of way... I knew who was telling the truth now...
