hmm, i can't decide which side i should branch this prose out to.
it's only a draft.
1. I looked at him.
He was thin, scrawny, and dirty. Eye bags drooped from his eyes like heavy sacks of regret, of sadness.
Along his cheek was a scar – five centimeters long. Cut across his cheek, cut across his history of violence, blood and misery.
It had healed, but it would never go away. It would remain a deep mark on him, it would return to haunt him for time to come.
I looked deeper, I looked into the windows of his soul – his tired, forlorn eyes.
He had killed. He had murdered.
--------------
it's supposed to end with " i looked into the mirror, and gazed at the reflection staring back at me. i sighed."
2. I looked at him.
He was fit, buff and wore a crisp, blue shirt. He sported a neat hairstyle, brown hair combed to a side. If not for the five centimeter scar that he got from a sports accident, he was handsome.
In his hand was a King leather briefcase; with its golden crown logo in the middle . Important documents were inside, given as a task suitable to his status – he was a high-ranking director in a computer technology research company.
Was that it?
I looked deeper, into the windows of his soul – his emotionless eyes.
I saw more.
---------
after this, there'll be a twist and actually he's a bad guy. same ending as the first.
so which one should i pick?
