He had no patience for melodrama, so he wrote like a man making a will. I do not ask you to be brave. I ask you to be careful. You will meet men and things who believe courage is primarily an outward show. It is not. The measure of bravery I expect of you is restraint. Use the blade to protect, not to parade. Use it to turn away what cannot be argued with and to make room for the living to continue their lives. If this sounds like cowardice to those who prefer the theater of violence, let them prefer it. You carry the instrument; you choose the music it will play.

Everyone said their last goodbyes — It was a pleasant day for the villagers but not for Abhi. — A moment later, the truck started moving. Abhi's heart began beating so fast, tears welled up from his eyes — he wanted to shout so loudly that he did not want to leave — he tried but he could not — his fear of speaking publicly dominated more than anything. It was the first time he felt sad, why God gave him that fear.

Only Irene could have her way like this. It was an unspoken rule that during fights, one could hurt anybody part except for the face. It was clear that Irene's intention was to embarrass Edric. Although this was a matter between both of them, Rowane could feel a sense of resentment against Irene growing inside her chest. "Irene is so cruel! Edric is willing to do anything for her. Hell, he does not even mind tarnishing his own reputation! What more does this woman want?” Rowane thought to herself.

Rad coaxed us to calm down so he could explain. Long ago, eight powerful braves managed to travel to the other side of the world, battling treacherous terrains and dangerous beasts. Since only one brave could reach the finish line, none of them were able to defeat each other. Because of that, they had a stalemate for a long time until they discovered a revelation that would change the lives of every person in this world forever. “We don’t age,” Rad said aloud. “What?” the crowd snapped.

She looked up at Sebastian, her cheeks still flushed with a mixture of embarrassment and gratitude. "You don't have to defend me to her," she murmured, feeling vulnerable under his gaze. He brushed a strand of hair from her face. "I didn't do it for her. I did it for you. Audrey, you don't need anyone's approval to be amazing." A warmth filled her chest, and for the first time in a long time, she believed it—maybe, with Sebastian by her side, she could finally silence the voice of doubt her mother had instilled in her all these years.

His voice was a broken, harsh whisper yell. Tali sniffed. "We are brave." Everyone paused as if gathering their courage. "WE ARE AMATUCCI!"

I looked up and my eyes fell on a pair that have been tattooed on my mind since the first day I first saw them. "Hey, be careful next time, muffin. You could've hurt yourself. " The voice I've been longing to hear all this time spoke, sending chills all over my body. I hated the effect he had on me. ''No need for this kind of nickname because it's weird plus since when do you care if I get hurt or not?'' I said, getting out of his hold and fixing my hoodie, making sure the hood was still in my head so it could cover my face. The bruises have vanished a little but there are still noticeable.

"Good for you, I admire how brave you are" Esth said smilingly look at him though I can see sadness behind that smile. "You are far braver than I am, you save lives and fight the illness and death, there is no more braver than that" "Maybe but you see, it isnt just the job well done, like what you said there are people who use to manipulate their position to disgraced someone, and not all people can understand what we are fighting for...the thing is I am not brave enough to accept the consequence if I will fight for what I want"

I add, and silence floods the room. “Instead of acting like it doesn’t exist… You should face it. Challenge it, and win. Only then will you be strong. Only then will you be powerful… only then will you be brave, Salvatore. Only then. Stop running.”
