I am feeling so lost these days.
Not able to distinguish between right and wrong anymore.
After Sophie's death, I didn't had it in me to even visit Vivian in the hospital.Or to protect her from going to the jail.
I lost connection with this world. I became a living corpse who spent his days behind closed doors, struggling with depression.
3 years.
It took me 3 years to finally move forward in life, letting it all go.
And I am happy I didTo stand on my feet again and make a mark in the business world and make my family proud.
But now, when I see Vivian.
I can see her struggles resembling mine.
Except for the only difference.
That she hasn't moved on.
She pretends she has, but I can see it clearly now.

Vivian's povFlashback-The voices...the laughs...the looks are again shrouding me.I fold my arms on my legs, pressing my knees to my chest.Trying to block them.Slowly counting in my mind, rocking my cold frame in a corner of the big canteen in the cell.Trying to be invisible.45000022....45000023..."Hey ugly bit**.

The doctor leaves and Vivian couldn't help, throw aside the comforter and rush towards a mirror in the corner.The throbbing in her head, no longer bothering her.As a new fear has shaken her insides.Her eyes widen as she stared at herself.Her fingers trembling as they traced her reflection in the mirror.The scarIt was looking like new, raw and visible without any veils of foundation.She couldn't stop the tears, that leave her eyes.Closing them, she couldn't hide it any longer now."The doctor's...they had to clean your face to clean the blood trails."She hears his voice from behind and her fists clench in front of her.Not daring to look at him to meet his eye.Her mind too numb to interpret anything.And her legs struggling to stand...it seems the effect of anaesthesia has still not worn off completely.Before she could fall back, a strong grip on her waist from behind steadied her.
