Draven,
After talking with Diana, I decided to go through some old files—documents I had kept in secret, believing them to be unshakable truths. But as I flipped through them with a fresh perspective, I wasn't disappointed to find the very obvious hole staring back at me like an uninvited specter.
The life I had been leading up to this moment felt like a carefully constructed lie. There were so many things I hadn’t prioritized, all because I placed blind trust in the people I had been paying handsomely. I never second-guessed their loyalty, never thought to recheck their work. But now, the weight of my negligence pressed against my chest like a vice.
A single, nagging question lingered in my mind, persistent and unwelcome. It made my blood run cold with confusion and uncertainty.
