"This Joyousness and dispersion of thought before a task of some importance seems to prove that this world of ours is not such a serious affair after all." -Joseph conrad

Since When (ch. 10)


Since when did you start to care? thought Mark.


“...and that’s the thing, we just need to stay optimistic,” said Bernard, looking hopefully out the window of the large official building.


“I was optimistic, “ you ignorant fool “until I realized something.” 


“What did you realize?”


“The same thing you realized,” started Mark hotly. “This situation, our fate, it’s all hopeless. At that point, exactly that point, I ceased to be optimistic, while you - you just began to be optimistic.”


“Seriously Mark, get a hold of yourself. We, this country - we”ll pull through this.”


 “Sure we will,” spoke Mark sarcastically.
