It was the usual quiet evening in the duke's mansion, Sammuel was in his study when Zavian came to visit him, "May I come in, brother?"
Sammuel nodded, and Zavian came inside Samuel's room and quietly sat down in front of Sammuel,"What is it?" Sammuel asked, not taking his eyes from the files.
Zavian sighed as he began by saying, "Brother, I am sorry."
Sammuel looked at him. He kept his files aside and placed a hand under his chin and looked at Zavian, "for what?"
Zavian sighed, " I am sorry for hiding so many things from you, but today I will tell you everything." After a lot of thinking Zavian had come to the conclusion that hiding things from Sammuel are more damaging than telling him everything.
In the end if Zavian did told him everything, Sammuel will only feel bad for him, because for Sammuel it will just be a sad and tragic story not that he will remember the real pain and experience and not that Zavian will ever let him experience that.
