Samuel looked at himself in the mirror, his reflection mirroring the turmoil within.
The accusations hurled at him by his brother Michael echoed in his mind, stirring up a mix of emotions. Michael's words cut deep, exposing the truth Samuel had been reluctant to acknowledge.
"Look at yourself! Still caring about Julia! SHE BETRAYED YOUR TRUST! She cursed your son using your powers! You are the reason everything is a mess! By marrying that witch, you destroyed the peaceful life we could have had," Michael's voice reverberated in Samuel's thoughts.
Samuel's grip tightened on the edge of the vanity, his knuckles turning white. Michael's words pierced his heart, each syllable dripping with resentment and disappointment.
The weight of his decisions pressed upon him, the consequences of his choices becoming unbearable.
