Five Random Words - VII
“I know what I ask is not easy.” I caught myself saying as I stared into the galaxies inside his eyes. “But I need you to trust me. I need you to breathe, to let go of every VAGUE thought inside your head. Stare into my eyes and just, believe…” I added, encountering a HACKSLAVER as the last few words left my mouth.
