Looking at his own figure in the bathroom's mirror, Lucien could still hardly believe everything that happened in these last couple of days.
A month ago, he was but a weak, bullied test subject kept deep below the ground serving only the purpose of some greedy and demonic figures. The eerie, demonic, twisted smile of that doctor… that woman was forever etched into the deepest, darkest recesses of Lucien's mind.
Still, he still overcame that hellish nightmare. He woke up, he escaped. True, for a while, Lucien wasn't certain that whatever he felt, whatever he experienced wasn't just another layer of his endless torments, his nightmares.
For a while, he just went with the flow, he let 'fate' guide him, leading him to experience kindness, an emotion that was alien to him for the first time in his life. For a very brief moment, he almost believed that destiny wouldn't selfishly intervene and let him feel true happiness… Even if briefly.
