The essence of Christianity is told in The Garden of Eden itself. The fruit that was forbidden, was on the tree of knowledge. The subtext is. All the suffering you have, is because you wanted to find out what was going on.

And it's guilt.

This unwillingness to admit guilt can be traced to the beginning of time, it's start. The story of Adam and Eve. Adam blamed Eve and she blamed the serpent. It is an ingrained trait because of sin.  

How great, how heinous, how sinful must the evil of sin be.

"You'll ache. And you're going to love it. It will crush you. And you're going to love all of it. Doesn't it sound lovely beyond belief?"

Libritor quietly listened to Pugione's meaningful and heartfelt words, trying not to cry through them. The quieter he became, the more he could hear. If he's going to make this work, she needed to let him inside even though it hurts, revealing the broken parts he needed to see. Like it or not, that's the way it needed to be. And he'll do whatever it takes. He'll do everything for her to remember him.

At least a memory, a minute, a second, a glimpse.

"You are not broken. You can love and be loved. Even when you're drowning and so far down, there is always time to reach for someone who will teach you how to breathe again."

It was all so weird, all of a sudden, a lot of things changed. All because of a word.

Mercy.

He's hurt, mentally and emotionally, but he would leave the pain aside. Because, until now, he would walk in with a smile, sometimes a faint one, but still one. That's just who he is, a boy who never stopped smiling.

Seeing such an impact on him, a word changed him whole. That would now be his ingrained personality.

The duality vanished; one side wounded, the other, darker than all others the light has seen.

The pain now so unbearable, that the smile he faked, and the agony that he tried to conceal can't be suppressed.
