Author's note: Continuation of Episode 69: Bound Reality "Bound Memories"
(Eugene's Past Life)
Something I never understood was when my mother said I was just like 'them' when I wasn't. I was an outcast and I wasn't a true member of the family, so how was I the same as them? Her eyes, which flashed with anxiety at the time, showed me that she stood by what she said, which was frightening.
I woke up one day, almost numb to all emotions. There was only a small percentage of my humanity left until I lost it all, and the one thing I haven't lost yet is not the emotion of vengeance, but the sense of freedom. Yes, I desired freedom. The only light in my world that made me feel alive was the desire for freedom, thus, I began to plan for it.
