The Red-Haired descendant

I've long since lost the ability to feel. Throughout my life, I've killed those who deserved it, numb to the world around me. As I watch happy, normal people dating, a twinge of envy washes over me. Years have passed since I stopped expressing emotions, and I never believed I could feel again until that day.

Sitting by the ocean, I contemplated who would dare invade my territory when a man approached and took a seat beside me. He began to speak about his life, his daughter, and various other topics. Unlike others, his eyes held a yearning for comfort rather than fear. It seemed he had come to talk to me out of loneliness, seeking connection in a world where I had built walls. For the first time in years I felt something - The Need to Have him.
