158 THE BLISSFUL FEELING

The life in front of you is far more important than the life behind you.

"Why?" Raine asked almost immediately. It was caused by her curiosity that washed over her. She was sure that she had heard some rumor about Torak's past. But, never had she ever thought to be given the chance to actually ask about it. She never had the courage to do so. It was now different. The chance to ask about it was upon her, it just felt so right to do so while they were still at it. 

Seeing how it was her sense of curiosity that was surfacing as a response to his long explanation, Torak was relieved. For him, it was better to see her being curious like this, rather than to see her being suddenly in fear. Or worse, if he had to see her having this disgusted look in her face for what he had done. Curiosity was a far better reaction than all these possible things in his head.
