Trust Me, Kid

[ALANOR]

The evening that was supposed to be beautiful had turned out to be a mess again, and while Alanor was tempted to blame himself for what had happened, this time, he was blaming his Mom.

If only the woman hadn't done everything that she had done, then things would be alright. Maybe their future wouldn't have been this distorted to the point that life and love weren't even making any realistic scenarios anymore. 

They had been to hell and back and to think that Zuhair Merdel would have been at the center of all that would have been an overestimation. 

Alanor wished it was just that, but then with his Mom, came the reminder of everything that had gone wrong in his life, everything that could have been avoided, and a fate that could have been changed.
