The devilish voice fell silent as if catching its breath before a new piercing returned.
"Why?" — the question was the only one, simple and carefree, but for Adam, it was a heavy stone, ominously hanging over the abyss of his thoughts. Because of this question, he lost strength in his body, as if cursed, and felt ruthless waters carrying him deep under the waves.
"The waves reflect your hesitation, and the ocean is the state of your soul," the voice sounded mocking, steeped in contempt. "You worry about your future, about the present, and regret the past." And the voice continued raging like a tornado, lashing out at him with words. "Resisting emotions is foolish. You are not a human but a demon. Demons live through sins and revel in every moment. So why can't you?"
The words intruded into his consciousness, shattering his perception of himself. "I... am human first," Adam replied, but he didn't know where he found the courage to resist this devilish call.
