Cap 142 - Sometimes I make mistakes.
🕑 Added 2020-08-19 02:52:50 +0000 UTC
Adrian was sitting on a chair. "Hmm, what is this?"
"Oh, this is my bear, his name is Jake."
"I see ..." Adrian looked at the bear with a confused face. He was sure that bear was not here before.
"Who gave you that bear?"
"It was Big Sister!" She replied excitedly.
"... Which one?" Adrian asked as he looked around.
"Boss, Leona gave her that bear," Jeane said.
'So it was Leona, huh?' Adrian looked at the bear for a moment, and for a few seconds, he saw the bear's eyes move. 'I understand.'
Jean, Sharon, and Emma Frost were sitting on a chair in front of Adrian; they felt a little intimidated by these women. After all, these women were beside Adrian while they watched every movement that Jean's group made.
"Cough, Adrian." Jean tried to get Adrian's attention.
Adrian stopped talking to the girls and looked at Jean, understanding what she meant, Adrian said: "I called Jean here to help her with her trauma."
"Think of it as a doctor's appointment, you are free to do whatever you want."
"Boss, are we obliged to erase our memories?" A woman with long black hair asked.
Adrian raises his eyebrow: "I already said, you are free to do what you want, she is your personal doctor, you will choose whether you want to forget what happened or not."
"This choice is only for girls who are adults, but children ..." Adrian stopped talking, but all the adult women who were close to him understood what he meant.
Children should not have that kind of memory.
"Jean, am counting on you." Adrian got up and took the chair he was sitting on; and placed it in front of Jean.
"Okay."
The girls looked at each other a little until the first woman left the group and sat in the chair that Adrian placed in Jean's front.
Adrian stood behind the woman, placed his hand on her back, and pulled the woman's body's the sleeping symbiote. After all, with the symbiote on the body, Jean will not be able to help the woman.
"Boss ..." The woman felt strange when she lost her strength.
"Do not worry."
The woman looked at Adrian and nodded.
"Jean." Adrian looked at Jean.
"Okay."
Jean used her powers and entered the woman's head. As soon as Jean saw the woman's memory, her face went dark, she put her hand over her mouth in an attempt to prevent vomiting.
Jean looked at Adrian and saw him nodding.
Jean looked at the children in the group and clenched her fist in anger.
"What memories do you want to erase?" She asked with an uncomfortable expression. Only now has Jean realized the seriousness of the situation.
"I don't want to erase those memories, I want to erase the feeling of discomfort that I feel, I want to erase this feeling of helplessness, I want to erase my trauma." The woman said. "It is possible?"
Her request was too vague, but Jean understood; she felt what this woman felt. 'She wants to erase that feeling of helplessness.'
"Yes."
Adrian was surprised by the woman's request and Jean's reply, he never thought that telepathy could do that, but if you think about it, if you're in someone's head, it means that you can change everything about that person, the request of the woman makes sense.
Adrian looked at the other adult women and to see them nodding, he understood that they all made the same decision as to the woman.
...
It took only 1 hour for 250 adult women to finish their consultation. After all, what they asked for was simple.
Sharon and Emma Frost said nothing. They just watched what the two were doing.
A child sat in the chair.
Adrian approached Jean and says something in her ear.
"Are you serious?" Jean asks seriously.
"Yes, I want them to have a normal childhood, when they are 20, they can decide which way to go."
"... Okay."
Adrian approaches the little girl and puts his hand on her head. He was suppressing the symbiote inside her.
Adrian's request was simple, change all memories about that incident. They will believe that they were just kidnapped, and Adrian saved them.
Adrian just wanted to be a benefactor to these children; he will restore them to normal life. When these children turn 20, Adrian will appear again to each of them and ask questions. "Would you like to join us?" When this question is asked, the child who will be a woman in the future will remember correctly what happened.
But it won't be a traumatic memory, Adrian doesn't want them to suffer, it will just be something like. 'Oh, you are the one who helped me.'
It is as if you forget an important memory and remember that memory the moment you hear that phrase.
That day they will have to make a decision that will change their lives.
If she decides to join Adrian. Adrian will welcome you with open arms.
If she decides to get on with her life, Adrian will erase these events' memory and make it possible for this woman to have a long life. He will always be watching and protecting them.
Of course, he'll get the symbiote back too.
Why is Adrian doing this? Simply, children must have normal childhoods; nobody can take that right away from them, not Adrian.
Adrian knows that he is being hypocritical; after all, it has not been a few days since he used his children's powers.
Even though he is a hypocrite, he doesn't care, Adrian just does what he wants, but that doesn't mean he can't change the decision he made earlier.
Like it or not, Adrian is not perfect, he makes decisions and regrets and steps back to fix his mistake, but he will never give a lame excuse.
Did he test his powers on these children and women? Yes.
He won't deny it; that was his will at that time; he just did what he wanted.
Adrian will do what he wants, but it does not mean that his decisions will be the perfect solution to all problems; he is not perfect.
The symbiotes who are asleep within these children will serve to protect them, and at the same time, these symbiotes will grow up to be subordinate to Adrian.
With that, Adrian was solving several problems with just one action.
Sincerely, Adrian hopes that when he appears again in the future, these children who are going to be adult women will not accept the offer to join him.
Adrian knows that he will not have a normal life.
But Adrian will only know this in the future. In the present, the only thing Adrian can do is give them a choice, a choice that they will have to decide in the future. Maybe he can solve this differently? Maybe, but for now, he can only think of a way to return the 'normal' to these little girls.
Sometimes a lie is better than the truth.
Sometimes reality can be crueler than a lie.
And sometimes someone decides your destiny for you.
Is that unfair? Yes, it is unfair; life is not fair.
Take these children and women, for example, was it fair? No, they were just the victims; there was no justice.
In the end, justice is decided by the strongest. If you think that the 'justice' that was decided for you is not fair, you must get stronger to do your own justice.
'Sigh, for some reason, I feel tired.' Adrian thinks as he watched Jean with his eyes closed.
[N / A: In this chapter, I try to develop Adrian's character. Did I do a good job? Please leave your constructive criticisms. I wanted to show that Adrian is not perfect and that he can change his earlier decisions. I don't want to make an MC OP that has no flaws; Adrian has flaws, he admits himself, but he tries to fix his flaws and not give lame excuses.]

Personally I think the way his character is going is fine. And his thoughts about giving the kids a normal childhood are understandable considering what he's experienced so far and how he grew up

PLEASE!! Comment what you think, should I redo this chapter? This is very important, I have two chapters like this one, I just change a few things, I wanted to know your opinion about Adrian's growth.
