The near boiling water, scalding the skin, was a relief. The moment still, unfoldied and replayed before the eyes. The trance unbroken, the brain drugged, the pain unberable, the numb body, further being numbed by the flowing hot water. His crumbling world hidden from the world by the eminating mist around was the only solace.
The brain screaming above the noise of the water, asked, why even after the huge time, did the events of the past effect him so .. The price had to be paid .. And he knew a million more deaths stood in front of him. The price of a promise, the price of his word. His strength is his weakness. His pain his strenght. His love unshaken .. Tomorrow is another day ..
