--*TRUTH.
"What would you do if you knew the truth?"
All I could do was to run away. I could feel the wind's icy hands caressing my face. I shuddered. Well, partly because of the wind. But the thought of "it"... I couldn't bear to think about it. Why can't I distract myself completely? Even if I try to close my eyes as I run, all that I see was chaos.
A rustle. I stopped and opened my eyes. I looked around quickly. Impossible, I thought. I had an hour gain on my predator. Yes, I am the prey. And I know the truth.
A flashback. Those deep, black eyes staring at me furiously. An unmasked disgust painted on that person's pretty face. "Why?" the person asked. "Why don't you tell me what you're hiding?" I couldn't find my voice. But I could feel something warm blurring my vision. NO! Tears? I can't and I won't cry in front of this person. There is only one solution. Escape. I would run away and take a shortcut to lengthen the distance between us.
A snap. That brought me out of my reverie. Someone is watching me. A pair of eyes. Yes, just a pair of eyes staring at me. But where?
A gasp. Wait! That came from me. Then I realized a pair of hands forcing me to face my captor. How could it be? I've been caught by my predator. Alas, I knew this day would come. But still, I was hoping it wouldn't. "Why?" the person asked once more in a calmer way. It seemed as if that person asked it years ago. Should I be evasive? Or should I tell everything?
A decision. "Fine" I muttered. "But I have a question. Just one question" I told the person. "OK" the person replied.
A question. I looked at the person's eyes then asked "What would you do if you knew the truth?"
