"Was your mystery man always like this? Running around the town and living a life of labor? He softly spoke but his words felt like a dagger to my heart. 

 

What was he trying to say? Was he trying to put that this kind of life wasn't worth living? Was it too low for him? 

 

I didn't say anything but just looked in his way. 

 

"If he had become a different person, would you still accept him?" 

 

I had thought about this before but never got to any conclusion but his words suddenly made me feel that maybe I would. 

 

I would give him a chance to bring him back, after all, he's the one I'm doing all this for otherwise it would become useless. 

 

"Yes." Without another thought, I replied to him and walked away to leave but not before I saw what was he hiding behind his back.
