章 104: FATE

ANGELOU

Shock was evident in Raphael's eyes with what I revealed to him, but it wasn't only him that was stunned at the revelation, because I myself was in deep thoughts right now on why I disclosed to him my painful past. 

I seldom imparted details about my life with people around me. It had been quite a while since the last time I opened up with someone about my life, only to those people I had known well enough and not some newly acquainted ones. So what I just did was something rare for me to commit. 

I'm not quite sure as well why I spilled them to Raphael. I barely knew the man, yet I exposed some of my life's fateful occurrences to him like I've known him for years. I was searching inside of me if I had regrets telling him so, but I found none. Instead, I was surprised to feel at peace after conveying to him what happened to me. It was as if a sharp metal was pulled out from my heart, which literally partially freed a part from its sufferings.
