The moment Brandon arrived, he felt eyes focused on him, Expecting this already, Brandon merely brushed it off and strode forward.
The weight of Evelyn's death still pressed down on him, each step he took getting heavier and heavier.
But he couldn't lie to himself anymore.
Despite the suffocating feeling that followed, he knew he had to cross this obstacle somehow.
And if he were to numb his feelings in the process, then so be it.
He was exhausted.
It was impossible to keep everyone safe in any progression.
He had only realized now that death was inevitable, despite the foresight, the preparations, and the knowledge. He couldn't take everything into account.
'No wonder Jin ended up the way he was.'
It was quite ironic. He had judged a book by its cover, never pondering too deeply about its contents.
If anything, he wouldn't be surprised anymore if he ended up like Jin.
In any case, Brandon looked around.
