'Did I make the right choice?'
Alden lay awake in bed, unable to sleep. He had tried for hours, but whenever he felt close to entering the land of dreams, thoughts of his latest interaction with Celeste would haunt his mind like a dark spectre. It was exhausting. And driving him crazy. However, Alden inwardly knew he had made the correct choice.
This was a necessary step for them to become true lovers.
That was not to say he handled the execution well, though.
'I made a real big mess of that.'
Alden thought bitterly.
He felt like his heart was crying out in distress, yet he could do nothing about it. For he only had himself to blame. Him. And his stupid brain. Perhaps, this was simply just the price he had to pay for adopting such a logical mindset.
Alden almost wished he hadn't become so rational - or at least almost wished he hadn't tried so hard to go against his very nature as an emotional person. It was only causing him pain.
