Adrian's POV
Daniel's Mansion - Later at night
The confrontation ended the moment she left, but I couldn't sleep.
Her words kept playing over and over in my head.
Instead of feeling guilty, I felt anger.
And rather…
Relieved.
For sixteen years I held onto questions no one would answer.
Today, they answered.
I remembered clearly everytime mother would change the topic and would scold me for being dumb allowing others to target me because of my father's name.
I should have felt satisfaction on seeing her leave,
But all I felt was…emptiness.
I never wanted to hate my mother.
I only wanted the deserved truth from her.
And now…
I realized anger had long gone..
And what was left behind was…
Sadness.
Sadness for the childhood I would have had, if Dad was with me.
I kept tossing and turning as I kept recalling the times I asked mother about dad and she would turn me down.
