XXIII - Unearthing Chaos

It is difficult to control our emotions. There is just no telling how we would feel we are facing a difficult situation. Though fighting anger and sadness is difficult, our reaction to them could mean the difference.

For Seb, holding back that anger and trying to stay calm is the only thing he knows what to do so that the tragedy of the past wouldn’t happen again.

If he didn’t lash out on the Cortez’s that fateful day, if he didn’t tell them to leave, then he wouldn’t have lost Ryan, then he wouldn’t have fallen on the pitfall of depression. So, finding out that they have betrayed him once again, Seb chose to stay calm instead.

He could see the regret and guilt in Ryan’s eyes. Emotions that he shouldn’t be feeling. It wasn’t his fault and yet Seb could see that he was taking all the blame for his family.

There was also anger in Ryan’s eyes. Hannah used his family and Ryan was rightfully enraged, but unlike Seb, Ryan was better at hiding it, at holding it back in.
