It was my turn to avoid eye contact. Because after what he had told me, poor guy spilled his guts in front of me, all I could think about was – what of Adan? I was ashamed for my selfishness and my petty reasons, which seemed so unimportant compared to how horrible Mark’s fate turned out to be. Did this guy have at least one moment of peace his entire life? First, all the fighting with his dad, having to live in the shadow of his perfect brother only to be kicked out and end up turned into a monster because of his girlfriend. No wonder he turned out so bitter and disrespectful. I couldn’t even imagine what I would do in his place. No, scratch that, I had some pretty good idea: I would probably kill myself, or go crazy, or bot. Abandoned by the woman he loved when he needed her the most.
