Zayn woke for the 9th time.
He did not shout or complain this time. Instead of focusing on others, he started thinking about his decision. His choice to never oppose them.
Even when he gained the chance to get out, instead of running away, he came back. In the end, he risked everything just for some petty revenge.
Wouldn't it have been better if he had walked away after that final betrayal?
Zayn imagined his life away from his family, all by himself, moving around the world, enjoying life the way he wanted.
The numerous possible things he could have done excited him. But as he continued to think more about this imaginary life, he started to feel hollow inside.
He realized that he was not into exploring everything, so he changed, and this time imagined himself starting a family, developing a company, and becoming a leader of the country.
He became like those children who dream of achieving different things in their lives. Only his imagination was more vivid.
