Jace could hear their insults and voices on repeat. It was painful, these people were people who heavily impacted his life. Some would always be a part of his life. But it was their voices saying such hurtful things.
He was even crying, he could not believe he was crying. He had not cried for so long. He could not even remember the last time he cried. He does remember that after that day he vowed to never cry again. Not because of the pain from his wounds or their words. But because he would not show that weakness. Especially not in front of anyone.
At the moment he was not in front of anyone so it should be fine.
No it wasn't. Ever since the academy he has always been watched. There was always something paying attention to him. He was never alone anymore. Because the Nanosystem was always watching.
So he could not cry. Not even here in the security of his own mind.
