Rhydian;
My mind wanders as our carriages roll out of the castle gates. Once again, my mind is trying to run to Elian, but I can't… I don't want to. Not right now.
It hasn't in any way grown easier to remember my mistakes. But still, against my will, I remember them anyway.
"You've become too spoiled, haven't you. I gave you a mile, and now you want to run all over me? I've been trying to respect you, and this is what I get?! I'm ashamed of you, Elian. You should be ashamed of yourself, too! I didn't expect this from you."
My words replay in my head, and I shut my eyes.
"Funny how I think that fucker is doing this on purpose. He's playing you! I can't prove it, but I know it! And you're too blind to see it! You're too busy playing Superman to even take a moment to think things through!" Elian's enraged voice rings in my mind, and I shut my eyes tighter.
