Believer

Darren's whole body was trembling terribly. No matter how much he yearned to know what happened back then, he couldn't hear it. The more he imagined the state she was in and how lonely she must have been, he felt like something broke inside him. 

Xiu could perceive the change in his emotions. She had come to know her Baobei way too well by now. She leaned her head on his shoulder as she stated, "That was really not one of my proudest moments. In fact, it still isn't. But you see, I had long lost control over my own self. At that moment, I was truly helpless. That was the only escape route my brain created for me and I blindly accepted it as the last escape."

Darren stayed quiet in reply. He was so emotionally devasted that he couldn't even bring himself to say anything to her.
