James didn't understand why Christy said those words, it made him hurt more. Even though that wounds had been forgotten now it back and hurter than before. It made him wonder and wait for the rest of the story to judge it.
He didn't want to judge her but that's the challenge while listening to Eric's story. Something he needed to know about Christy. He felt like she wants the same person anymore, it felt so different when Eric asked the question.
'What makes you like that? Is it my fault? Why, why?' James couldn't figure it out. He had some unfinished business here. He wanted to get out a few months ago but somehow he realized he back on track again. It happened so fast until he didn't realize it.
Eric was very passionate about the story and so did James, it only he passionate differently. James really limps because of the story but he still wanted to hear it. It's like exposed the wound so it could heal by the hurter way and he chooses it.
