753 Exchange Touchdown

"Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!"

Felix screamed recklessly at the TV screen, like a madman.

Yet this scene brought Karen to tears.

In the week they skirted death and survived, Felix had always been active and optimistic, acting as if nothing had happened, even joking that he "stole some time from death" and comforted Karen in return, repeating over and over that it's okay, he's fine.

It's as if a lie, repeated a hundred times, becomes the truth.

But Karen knew it wasn't so.

Karen was worried about Felix, and Felix was worried about Karen; therefore, they both quietly hid their vulnerabilities, facing each other with strength and smiles, daring not show any unease or fear, fearing it might be the straw that breaks the camel's back, pretending everything was fine.

Up until now, Felix finally cautiously released his emotions, those mixed vulnerabilities, transforming into shouts, released from deep within his soul.
