What would you do if what you see in a person or people were just a facade?
What if the people you think need protection were the ones that should be avoided?
What if they were the ones that should be feared?
You trusted them, you never thought they could harm someone.
As you slowly dig deeper into knowing them, you get to see a glimpse of what was inside Pandora's Box.
Are you ready to enter their world? Are you willing to know them more? Or will you fear what is behind the mask?
Would you still stay by their side? Are you still willing to protect them?
Or...
Will you be the one to rip off their mask?
